Potential effects of tea on health - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tea Trio is made with organic ingredients; it contains rare organic white tea, organic green tea from minimally-processed Camellia leaves and organic black tea derived from a delicate fermentation process. Carefully sourced and blended in a specific ratio, the combination in Tea Trio provides broader antioxidant protection and a more balanced range of naturally healthpromoting tea bioactives than one or two alone.

No, Mech:

I pretty much answered my own question. When you have a shotgun slung over your shoulder, no one tends to tell you can't bring a motorized anything on a trail. Same principle for a mech.
