Im trying to make my normal day to day meals and drinks healthier, and ive been told green tea is great. However, the only way it tastes good, is if i put it ALOT of sugar (i dont like honey) so, would it be ok if i put green tea in my cup along with a regular tea bag? would i still get the benefits of the green tea?

Green tea can getting used to but you really just need to drink it on it’s own or with a slice of lemon in hot water. Adding normal tea if you drink it black won’t do you any harm but I don’t think it will make it taste any better. If you add milk it will taste awful.

So I can understand how dairy would not be a good idea due to the increase acid from the spicy food and compensation from the dairy.

I’ve searched online for tips on how to overcome extremely spicy food, particularly for hot wings, and all sites have people suggesting MILK.

Let me know what you guys think. Insight from anyone will be appreciated. Thanks!

Hmmm, I’ve never heard that "pharmacology" analysis, but I know for sure that milk and milk products DO cut the heat from spicy/hot foods, and they do it immediately. (I like a bit of sour cream or yogurt mixed into spicy foods if I don’t drink milk afterwards).
"Milk contains casein, a lipophilic (fat-loving) protein that surrounds and washes away the fatty capsaicin molecules (which cause the burn) in much the same way that soap surrounds grease and allows to be rinsed away)."

In the experiments I’ve seen and heard of, the main things that seem to help are:

…milk products: milk, yogurt, sour cream, cream, ice cream, creamy sauces, etc… (cold ones like cold milk even better)
…bread
…beer, etc. (alcohol and alcoholic beverages/ethanol are solvents for capsaicin so can help dissolve/wash it away, but may need a lot… cold ones even better)
…fatty, oily foods, cheese (oils are solvents for capsaicin)
…sugar directly on the tongue (…or only a distraction?)

(there’s loads of info on those things online and why they work –and why others won’t work)

P.S. Maybe you should order a small side of ice cream with your hot wings! …and have dessert-with-appetizer.

Read here about the alkaline diet:
http://altmedicine.about.com/od/popularhealthdiets/a/alkalinediet.htm

An acid diet is anything that is not part of the alkaline diet (AKA typical western diet).

An alkaline diet is actually a good thing. It is comprised of veggies and healthy items.
An acid diet is full of dairy, meats, coffee, sugar, and many other things that are bad for you.

Stick to salads, fresh vegetables and healthy nuts and oils. Try to consume plenty of raw foods and at least 2-3 quarts (liters) of clean, pure water daily. Steer clear of fatty meats, dairy, cheese, sweets, chocolates, alcohol and tobacco. Packaged foods are often full of hidden offenders and microwave meals are full of sugars and salts. Over cooking also removes all of the nutrition from a meal.

a) Write a balanced equation for the reaction that is taking place.
Include state symbols

e)At the end of the reaction, some lumps of calcium are left over.
Would you expect the solution left behind to be acidic, alkaline or neutral?
Give a reason for your answer.

f) State and explain the effect of using the same mass of powdered calcium carbonate
instead of lumps on

(i) The overall rate of the reaction
(ii) The volume of gas produced.

a)
2 HCl (aq) + 2 CaCO3 (s) -> 2 CaCl (aq) + H2O (g) + CO2 (g)

e)
neutral since all the HCl has been reacted with and there is no acid left. There is only a pretty much neutral salt left in solution.

f)

i)
rate of reaction will be much faster since surface area has increased. This means that CaCOe particles have a higher chance of finding HCl particles.

ii)
the volume of gas produced is the same since you are adding the amounts of the reactants are still the same.
