Go to Google (www.google.com) search engine and enter the following words just like this: fluoride danger thyroid I also did another search using this: where does fluoride come from Got a bunch of hits from that.... just curls your hair... One of the articles I read stated that after 9/11 they actually put extra security on the trucks that transport the fluoride that is put in our drinking water cuz it's that hazardous! Another was on a rat study associated fluoride doses equal to what is in municipal US water supplies had increased aluminum uptake in the brain... this aluminum brain thing is now a strong link to the development of Alzheimer's. ... then there is the Green Tea thing... sigh Topper () Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Green tea has high levels of fluoride... If the leaves are allowed to mature, to make 'conventional' tea, the concentrations of fluoride drops significantly. Topper () On Thu, 1 Feb 2007 17:58:58 -0500 " Teague" writes: green tea??

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Yup, it's in THERE!! Sucks doesn't it? I really like green tea, so I guess I was lying when I said no fluoride for me, as I drink it every now and then. I was drinking it almost every single day. Why is it that everything we like isn't good for us. I hate it. Re: fluoride green tea?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 That is going to be the black tea, as we know it. Green tea is simply immature tea leaves, possessing more antioxidants and such. Black tea has them too, but in much weaker amts, due to the maturation process.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 at least i can still have the raspberry tea leaves... they're ground up raspberry leaves.. i'll have to make sure i use bottled water though . andrea Re: fluoride How do ya know when the leaves have matured?

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 If you are picking the tea leaves yourself, it's size and color.. but I doubt any of us are in climates where the leaves are grown.... When buying it, it will be labeled... Green tea is a fad now, it does have some positive aspects to it.. but the additional fluoride it introduces to our systems, in my mind, is not worth it... as far as the product, green tea, goes.. it's a great gimmick now... harvesting the leaves while immature allows multiple harvests and a greater profit margin for the growers... the 'healthy' marketing angle created a new market.... it's a win win for them... at the cost of increased health hazards to their consumers. ... sorry... it's just another thing that I have an attitude about....

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 Herbal teas, like Raspberry, mints, etc.. don't have this fluoride deal going on... it's the leaves used to make black teas that are being harvested before maturity to make 'green tea'. There are several varieties of tea leaves that are used to do black tea, (like Lipton, one of the most common in the US). The key is if it's labeled caffeine free.... black teas, made from that type of leaf, has caffeine.. I'm not sure if the caffeine has developed at the stage the green tea leaves are harvested.

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 Yeah, I have to break down and have some green tea on occasion. I just don't make a habit of it and it's usually in the winter when I drink it hot. wrote: Yup, it's in THERE!! Sucks doesn't it?
