Guest guest Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 This is a topic I read on another list, but it was off-topic there. I'm concerned that I keep reading that tea contains fluoride - something strenuously to be avoided - and even that green tea has higher amounts. This is especially disturbing to me, as I've been reading countless articles that recommend green tea for its antioxidant and anticancer benefits. How am I supposed to get green tea if the stuff is loaded with fluoride? The medical community, in general, seems to ignore the negative impact of fluoride on health, but I know that moving away from a city that loads its municipal water with chlorine and fluoride has made a world of difference in how I feel. I certainly don't want to add the stuff back into my diet by consuming fluoride-laden tea. And since it competes with iodine for receptors, it doesn't make sense to drink it and take iodine, too. Anyone got some wisdom on this, for me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 Fluoride in tea is a huge concern. We are told of the health benefits of green tea, while too many are not aware that it too contains fluoride.That is why we try to cover all bases in the supplements section of The Best Years in Life. We highlight the best products, synthetic and petroleum free supplements, and we also have highlighted healthy, fluoride free green tea. We encourage everyone to visit The TBYIL Complete Supplement and Health Catalog. Tony has hand-picked the best natural supplements available anywhere. Just scroll down the page to the Mercola Section and you will find Royal Matcha Green Tea. Tea that you can be assured is healthy and fluoride free.My Best,D Ann <angelportoleander soup Sent: Thu, March 11, 2010 6:43:11 PM FLUORIDE IN TEA This is a topic I read on another list, but it was off-topic there.
