Hi BLUECURA, I drink the normal black tea every day with caffiene, and yes, it definitely controls the odor and keeps it at bay for long periods of time everyday. I do try to follow a low choline diet when I can, but I don't want to sacrifice my health by eliminating essential foods and juices that our bodies sorely need. A TMAU sufferer could easily become malnourhised because of avoiding foods that keep us healthy. Remember, just about everything has choline in it or trace amounts of choline in it. That is why I make sure I drink a cup or glass of black tea with each meal. I try and be balanced when it comes to choosing which foods to eat. Your body will alert you about which foods trigger the emission of fish odor, feces odor, ect., because you will start to smell within a half hour or less. That is why drinking black tea for me is essential....I have a "" normal life because of regularly drinking black tea. As I have stated I have a high tolerance for caffiene, it does'nt bother me at all and I sleep like a log through out the night! :)take care.
