Congratulations to Kelvin Gastelum for winning his welterweight debut by submitting Brian Melancon via rear naked choke in round one. Coach Mike Dolce managed Gastelum’s weight cut down to 170 lbs. from his former fighting weight of 185 lbs. The newly minted welterweight stepped into the Octagon at 194 lbs. Dolce pointed out this was the same fight-night weight at which Gastelum fought for and won The Ultimate Fighter 17 title as a middleweight.

Tea has been used for health and healing since ancient times. Now, knowledge of the benefits of those little leaves has spread across the world. There are over 3,000 types of teas, all of which have their own unique appeal. Here are 5 of the most common, along with their lesser known health benefits.

1. Black Tea

This is the most common type of tea in the Western world. If you’re not a coffee drinker, or want to quit coffee, black tea might be a good substitute since it has the highest caffeine content of any tea. In fact, it is widely known as Breakfast Tea. It may also protect lungs from smoke and pollution damage and potentially lower the risk of stroke.

2. Green Tea

Mike Dolce – and much of the medical community – love green tea … and for good reason! It has been shown to lower the risk of both Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease, help in weight loss through thermogenesis, assist in fighting certain cancers, and reduce stress on the brain, along with several other benefits.

3. White Tea

This is the least processed variety of tea, and there are studies which suggest that it has the strongest anti-cancer properties of any tea. It can also fight bacterial infections.

4. Oolong Tea

Though one of the less common types of tea in America, studies suggest that oolong tea can help to lower cholesterol. Rich in powerful antioxidants, oolong tea also can help remove harmful toxins from our bodies.

5. Nighttime herbal teas

If you have trouble falling asleep or just want some help letting go of the day’s stress, try a tea containing chamomile or valerian root, both popular herbal ingredients in nighttime teas. Valerian root has sedative and anxiety-reducing effects while chamomile not only helps produce a relaxed state, but it can also help knock out colds and ease menstrual cramps.

As I sit here at on a bench in the gym, awaiting BJJ (Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for anyone who isn’t aware) to start, I’m yet again pondering my life, and what exactly I want from it.
I’ve become so enthralled with Jiu Jitsu, it has recently invaded my dreams. So much so, I woke up this morning clenching my wrist. It may just be the only healthy obsession I’ve ever had. Aside from contemplating whatever maneuver-of-the-day I’m being taught, I spend just as much time wondering “What If?”
What if I had started sooner?  What if someone had pushed me this direction? Where would my life be then? What if I was taught better choices? What if? What  if? What if?!
Once this starts, I shake my head so rapidly it’s dizzying. My focus isn’t swayed one bit, and I know what I’m supposed to do, but I find it hard to not question what could’ve been.
Without a doubt as time passes, the objective certainly changes and the goals are rearranged. Does that mean that settling is going on?  Great. Another question thrown in with the many others that swirl around in my head, to go along with the kittens, rainbows, and princesses! (A little podcast humor, heh.)  
I spend so much time in the past, my present suffers. I’m learning to let go of the “What-ifs” and focus on the fact that I’m doing what’s necessary to avoid any “What-ifs” in the future.
It’s quite a daunting task, but who knows? Maybe, just maybe, I’ll make something of myself and have something to be proud of! I’ve accomplished so many small personal goals these past two years I didn’t even think were possible. Here’s to many more! Maybe even some big ones as well!  Now if you don’t excuse me, I gotta see a man about an arm bar! 😉
