Edamame is about as whole a soy food as you can get. After all, these are soybeans still in their pods. You can buy them frozen and just throw a handful into some boiling water anytime you want a healthy snack. They cook in about 5 minutes.

(You can also buy them pre-shelled, but then they're not as fun to eat.) [2015] - Michael Greger

Red tea should ideally be simmered for at least 5 minutes. Brew black tea for 4 minutes, green tea for 3 minutes at 85°C, and white tea for 7 minutes at 98°C. Surprisingly, bags are better than bulk, because the leaves in tea bags are much more finely chopped, allowing for greater extraction. [2023] - Michael Greger
