Boils (cysts?) from tea? Wondering why ...

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

 

I was just reminded of a question I wanted to post:

 

I get these huge boils/cysts on my face when I drink any tea that take

a long time to heal. I need antibiotics from Dr. and they still scar

terribly. I have the same thing happen when I take any supplement that

has green tea in it.

 

I just ignored the issue and stayed away from any tea, but my son gave

me a 2 pound can of Teavana Matevana Rooibos Chai and now I am in love

with it (yet afraid to drink it). I have tried regular teas,

chamomile, green tea and react to all of them.

 

Does anyone have any reason I may be reacting to teas? Could it be

ridding me of poisons and this is how it shows or would this be an

allergic reaction? What teas I may be able to drink without reacting

to it?

I would say The Tea is just bringing these bacteria to the surface of

your skin; the Tea is not causing this;

 

sounds like Strep or staph bacteria; I would go with the anitbiotics;

 

and stay away from the Tea; eat lots of Garlic and Onions daily; thx.a

Try  RED Clover tea-it helps to  get rid of cysts etc  so may help but it is

a strange complaint-i understand the reaction   with tea or coffee that has

tannin or caffeine  but cammomile etc -it is unusual that you should have a

reaction-also it is much trial and error---try some fruit teas or warm fruit

juice-- also eat 3-6 almonds each day-if you feel it is an allergy then take

echinachea-which can also be  used as a tea, tablet or powdered form  All teas

may be sweetened with honey- your age may be a factor if you are in your teens

etc so therefore  hormonal but i am only quessing here.

I think you may be allergic. I'd stay away from it if I were you.

Thank you everyone,

 

I never heard of an allergy to tea, and it's hard to give up the

benefits of teas, but until I can can figure out the exact ingredient,

an allergic reaction is nothing to play around with and either are

taking the antibiotics to heal them.

 

The same reaction is to chocolate, and these are very large and

painful things. Chocolate I can give up easily and have, but I love

the teas.

 

I have only spoken to one other person who testified to the same

reaction from teas about 20 years ago. It was a man who was playing

b-ball with my husband. I was using compresses for a sore I developed

and he told me he had to give up ice tea because every time he drank

it he developed the same boils and cyst like sores. That is how I

figured out it was tea, actually.

I wonder if it's the caffeine or tannin in both (chocolate and tea)

that might cause it. Looking around on the internet, also noticed that

nickel is in both, can cause skin reactions if allergic to.
