On tonight’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy learn all about tea from the Tea Sommelier from Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy’s 2007 Product of the Year Tavalon Tea’s Chris Cason. Chris has been studying tea for a long long timeand he is a big part of why Tavalon is known throughout the world as a cutting edge tea company. Whether it is creating signature tea drinks for Bloomingdales or mixing tea infused adult beverages, Chris is a creative dude who loves his tea.

Chrisgave us a quick tea lesson - did you know there are 4 main types of teas: black, green, white and oolong. And did you know if you are making fresh iced tea at home you should let your brewed tea get back down to room temperature before putting the ice in it. So if you are looking for a healthier buzz in the morning skip the coffee and go with the tea- Chris can find a tea for you that gets you to where you want to go.

To learn more about how and why a Tavalon Tea gift Set is the ultimate gift please check out his website www.tavalon.com Check out the picture of a blooming tea - those handmade blooms slowly open up inside the pot revealing unique and beautiful burst of color every time - no wonder they call it “the agony of the leaves”. What a presentation - what a great gift for the tea lover in your family.

We closed the show with Mercury Morris, former All Pro running back and kick returner from the undefeated 1972 Miami Dolphins. this segment had very little to do with fitness but since the Fat Guy is a huuuge Miami Dolphin fan and we had the chance to interview one of his childhood heroes we couldn’t pass it up. Mercury talked about the New England Cheatriots attempt to go undefeated and he shared his feelings about this year’s last unbeaten team the Tennessee Titans. He also said that every Dolphin fan should go to his website www.mercurymorris22.com and check out all the cool t-shirts, caps and other great stuff commemorating the Unbeaten 1972 Miami Dolphins. Go Phins!

Dr Fitness had lots of tips about how to manage a fun run with your kids. Remember, you can find a tip a day at our new website www.wellnessminutes.com or on iTunes here.

Man, one of the perks of this radio show is that people send us stuff to try. And our friends at Holey Donuts have a buddy at Tavalon Tea and they sent me a care package with lots of goodies. In addition to a whole variety of delicious fresh loose leaf teas including my fave the lemongrass green tea they sent a gravity teapot steeping machine. If you like tea you have to check out their website www.tavalon.com I used to order from a competitor, but not anymore these guys rock! I’m sure Dr Fitness could give you a list of health benefits of tea, like anti-oxidants, speed up your metabolism, blah blah blah…but I just drink it straight up for the caffeine.
