Five-year-old Elia arrived at school with a big box of colored pencils. Her friend, Anna, offeted to exchange her t of markers for the brand-new pencils. Elia agreed, but soon discovered that the markers were dried up. "That's not fair!" cried Elia to her teacher. “I want my new pencils back.” After some tears and negotiation, the teacher helped the girls t things right by returning the items to their original owners.
Later that day, at story time, the teacher shared the picture book classic A Bargain for Franc
es. Though the conflict in the story is just over a broken tea t, the message about fair play was not lost on the children. The book was helpful in exploring a small, yet significant, life lesson. Stories are vital to the way we process and experience life events and the feelings that surround us. The ability to create, share, and respond to stories is one of the vital characteristics of being human. In fact, the human brain is programmed to e patterns and become fascinated in the plot development of stories, finally storing them in long-term memory.

We have heard a lot about the health benefits of tea, especially green tea. It is high in poly-phenols, compounds with strong antioxidant activity that in test-tube and animal models show anti- cancer and heart-protective effects. Good clinical studies are few, how
ever, and although physicians tell their patients to drink green tea, there hasn't been any definite proof of the value of that advice.
A team of Japane rearchers was able to link green tea consumption with decread mortality from many caus-including heart dia. The rearchers tracked 40,530 healthy adults ages40 to 79 in a region of northeastern Japan where most people drink green tea, following them for up to 11 years. Tho who drank five or more cups of green tea a day had significantly lower mortality rates than tho who drank less than one cup a day. There were also fewer deaths from cardiovascular dia.
But no such association was en with deaths from cancer. Nor was consumption of oolong or black tea connected with any decrea in mortality. Tho teas are easier to be combined with oxy- gen in processing, which not only darkens the color of the leaves and changes their flavor but also reduces their polyphenol content.
Coffee is more complicated. It has received both gold stars and black marks in medical literature. It, too, contains antioxidants, although they are less well studied than tea polyp
henols. Evidence for the health benefits of coffee is growing, however. A group of investigators from Finland, Italy and the Netherlands reports that coffee ems to protect against age-related decline in mental capacity. The scientists studied 676 healthy men born from 1900 to 1920 and followed them for 10 years, using standardized measures of brain function. Their conclusion: the men who consumed coffee had significantly less decline in mental capacity than tho who didn't. Three cups a day emed to provide the most protection.
Population studies like tho help us form assumptions about relationships between dietary habits and long-term health. We still have to test our suppositions in controlled conditions, and measure the effects of coffee and tea on various systems of the body.
