Has anyone here considered the high fluoride content of green and black tea? I would encourage you all to read the article entitled “Green Tea, Fluoride, and the Thyroid” found at Mercola.com Go to the website then type in the article title in the search box.
i have a suggestion/question to add…. i stopped drinking green tea until i found matcha, which i think is ground green tea leaves, pureed… i mix this with almond milk to make a kind of latte which tastes really good with crushed ice cubes and still gets all of the tea’s antioxidants (it is said to be the key antioxidant in reducing sun damage leading to skin cancer, a big problem in my family). is this okay??
What about Yerba Mate tea? I love it and it gives me soooo much energy without caffeine. It’s really good sweetened with a little agave or raw honey.
Hi, Zoe. Trust me, the raw diet gives me energy! But sometimes, the little rush from some cacao nibs or powder…or the yerba mate tea is fun and gets me through a few hours of playing with my three year old twins. :)
raw vegan crack eh.. hahah yeah thats what i was wondering i will def check with the manufacturer… i am just hesitant to rule it out from my diet in its raw form just because, even with the caffeine, of all the antioxidant power that has been documented about it as a superfood… thoughts?
