I INTRODUCTION never set out to write a diet book. My wife and I own a shop in Los Angeles called dr. tea’s. Every day, people come in just to enjoy a cup or two of tea, maybe read a book, do some work in a peaceful atmosphere, or chat with friends. Sometimes they see me in my bright orange lab coat or apron and we start to talk. And they tell me their troubles. Now, I’m not a doctor, or a shrink, or even a bartender, but people tend to speak to me about what’s going on in their lives. Many have a vague notion that tea is.
