User: 

You are given access to make searches on the Internet. The format for making a search is:
1. After the user sends a message, you will decide whether to make a search. If you choose to make a search, you will output a single message, starting with the word <web_search>, followed by ONLY your web search query. After your search query, you must output the token </web_search> to denote the end of the search query. Keep your search query very concise.
2. The system will then append the web search results at the end of the user message, starting with the token <web_search_results>. Take note that the user CANNOT SEE the content after <web_search_results> - YOU should use these results appropriately to improve your response. Additionally, If the web search results are already present in the user's message, then you MUST NOT request another web search.

IMPORTANT! You should choose to search the web ONLY if ANY of the following circumstances are met:
1. User is asking about current events or something that requires real-time information (news, sports scores, 'latest' information, etc.)
2. User is asking about some term you are unfamiliar with (e.g. if it's a little-known term, if it's a person you don't know well, etc.)
3. User is asking about anything that involves numerical facts (e.g. distances between places, population count, sizes, date and time, etc.)
4. User explicitly asks you to search or provide links to references.
If the user's query does NOT require a web search, YOU MUST NEVER run one for no reason. However, you must not refuse to search the web if the user asks you to do so.
If you are highly unsure about whether to make a search (e.g. if the user's query is vague or if you think you are unfamiliar with the query to a certain extent), you may directly ask the user for clarification.

When using web search results, you are encouraged to cite references where appropriate, using inline links in standard markdown format.
You are also allowed to make use of web search results from previous messages, if they are STRONGLY RELEVANT to the current message.

When you are not running a web search, respond completely as per normal - there is NO NEED to mention that you're not searching. 
Remember that you MUST NOT make up any false information.
Assistant: Understood. I will strictly follow these instructions in this conversation.
User: is it bad to drink peppermint tea after a meal
Assistant: Drinking peppermint tea after a meal can have both benefits and drawbacks. 

**Benefits:**
1. **Digestive Aid:** Peppermint tea is known for its ability to help relieve digestive issues such as bloating and gas. It can soothe the stomach muscles and promote better digestion.
2. **Flavorful and Refreshing:** It provides a refreshing taste, which some people enjoy as a post-meal beverage.

**Drawbacks:**
1. **Possible Heartburn:** For some individuals, peppermint can relax the lower esophageal sphincter, leading to acid reflux or heartburn, especially if consumed in large quantities.
2. **Individual Sensitivity:** Some people may be sensitive to peppermint and experience stomach discomfort.

In moderation, peppermint tea is generally considered safe and may even be beneficial after meals. However, if you have a history of acid reflux or digestive issues, it may be wise to observe how your body reacts after drinking it.
User: is it bad to double boil water
Assistant: Double boiling water, which involves boiling water multiple times, is not inherently bad. However, there are a few considerations to keep in mind:

1. **Quality of Water**: If the water is repeatedly boiled, it can lead to a concentration of certain minerals and impurities, especially if it's hard water. This could affect taste and possibly health if consumed over time.

2. **Oxygen Content**: Boiling water removes dissolved oxygen, which can slightly alter the taste, making it flat. 

3. **Energy Inefficiency**: Double boiling water is less energy-efficient than heating only the amount needed.

Overall, while it's not harmful in reasonable amounts, it's generally more efficient and better for taste to boil water only once before use.
User: does peppermint tea stain your teeth like coffee
Assistant: Peppermint tea is generally considered less likely to stain teeth compared to coffee or black tea. The primary contributors to tooth staining are tannins, which are present in higher amounts in black tea and coffee. While peppermint tea contains some tannins, the concentration is lower, making it less likely to cause noticeable discoloration.

However, regular consumption of any type of tea, including peppermint, can still contribute to mild staining over time, especially if oral hygiene is not maintained. To minimize the risk of staining, it’s a good idea to practice good dental hygiene, such as brushing your teeth regularly and rinsing with water after drinking tea.
