"Green tea is synonymous with Japanese tea. It is the most consumed beverage in Japan, valued for its health and restorative properties. Drinking green tea (緑茶) is a custom that has been interwoven into Japanese culture, with almost every meal in Japan accompanied by a freshly brewed pot of green tea." As the result of my studies of a health condition I've been recently experiencing I came to the conclusion that Green Tea is something that not only myself but EVERYBODY should be drinking on a daily basis ... as the Japanese do. My health condition involved my catheter bag turning blue ... a few days after my catheter was changed by a nurse. I'd contracted a bacterial infection of a type usually found in bed-ridden patients who have a UTI, a kidney disease ... and dementia. My kidneys are not fully fucntional so I need to have regular dialysis. This dialysis does not deal with the build up of indoxyl sulphate, a toxin that healthy kidneys eliminate ... with the help of a dietary protein called KLOTHO ... which healthy kidneys retain rather than eliminate in the urine, as can happen with people whose kidneys are not fully functional. The blue colour is a dye that certain bacteria produce in the presence of excess indoxyl sulphate and dietary tryptophan. Excess indoxyl sulphate can cause a wide variety of health problems, including dementia. Some people on dialysis have over 50 times the normal level of indoxyl sulphate in their bloodstream. My dialysis unit does not check the level of this toxin. KLOTHO is described as an "anti aging" protein ... the main source of which in the Japanese diet is GREEN TEA. Japan is noted for having many remarkably healthy elderly people of advanced age. Studies have shown that some 40% of people over the age of 60 in the UK do not have fully functional kidneys ... the "medicine" we need is GREEN TEA.

'Living longer with Klotho' www.youtube.com/watch?v=VtFgfDIHxuIThanks for that SC, not only does it open doors to looking at both our kidney problems but also to something I have tried to impress on people for many years. Firstly I haven't drunk tea for probably 5 years, I drink Rooibos, a South African plant that has been used for many years as a beverage, though it has a tealike taste it has higher levels of good things, like for instance, anti-oxidants. I've read the article and then looked to see whether Rooibos is one of the tested or approved products; sadly no banana but I intend to pass it on to the research team. Many years ago and well before Klotho had been investigated, I concluded and argued that old age was genetic rather than reasons often considered to be the case. I based it on insurance companies' questionaires which tended to concentrate on family history rather than ones personal history; I think this was due to statistical evidence rather than any research on Klotho or other discoveries. |

I like Green Tea. It was almost exclusively what I drank in Taiwan.

I’ve taken a liking to the taste of the stuff since working from home, Since i drink it ‘black’ (should that be green?) it stays warm for hours in my insulated mug in the upstairs office.
One of the ‘posh tea’ brands does it in tea bags with lemon in the local supermarket for barely more than Tetleys / PG
I can’t say I’ve really noticed a change in myself for it but thanks for the heads up

I drink a Rooibos teabag along with an orange and cinnamon one. Quite nice if I do say so myself. I'm also am partial to green tea. \ Green tea is considered the healthiest beverage in the world. |

'Living longer with Klotho' www.youtube.com/watch?v=VtFgfDIHxuIMy kidneys are pretty well buggered anyway. I have no sooner zipped my fly up than I have to unzip it and start again.
I can't say that I am overly bothered. One of the advantages of the advancing years is that I am not merely allowed, but expected to be smelly and incontinent. But I don't like the idea of going gaga. I have Japanese friends with elderly relatives and they just park them in front of the telly with bumpers of Suntory whisky and leave them to gibber their geriatricdom away, so I don't know if green tea works or not, but it can't do any harm to try.
