Tea Dragon Films is First Adopter in the American Botanical Council's New Adopt-An-Herb Program
Date:12/10/2008

AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 10 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The American Botanical Council (ABC) has officially launched its Adopt-an-Herb program, following Tea Dragon Films'(http://www.themeaningoftea.com) adoption of tea (Camellia sinensis). For the next three years, Tea Dragon Films will provide ABC financial support to ensure that abstracts (summaries) of the latest published scientific and clinical research on tea are made available within ABC's HerbMedPro database, one of the most robust and powerful herbal databases and research tools on the Internet.

Tea Dragon Films' adoption is in honor of its new film The Meaning of Tea (http://www.themeaningoftea.com/trailer.html), a 74-minute documentary that investigates the different beliefs, practices, and cultural traditions surrounding tea in eight countries: England, France, India, Ireland, Japan, Morocco, Taiwan, and the United States. Directed by Scott Chamberlin Hoyt, the film uses a mix of interviews, music and stunning visual elements to explore the fascinating world of tea. From tea rituals in cultures where tea is cherished, to those who mold the very instruments used to carry and serve tea, the film asks a variety of characters around the world about their relationship to tea as a beverage, a means of relaxation, and - for many - a way of life.

"ABC is deeply grateful to Scott Hoyt and Tea Dragon Films for being the very first to adopt an herb and providing such excellent support of the HerbMedPro database," said Mark Blumenthal, ABC's founder and executive director. "Their support furthers ABC's efforts to expand HerbMedPro into an even more useful education and research tool."

By adopting tea, Tea Dragon Films issupporting ABC's ongoing efforts to collect and disseminate reliable traditional and science-
