Lipton, Luzianne and Losers - the Dangers of Drinking Tea

by Donna Voetee (AKA Granny Good Food)

(The Best Years in Life) Granny Good Food believes that Texans do not have blood. There is sweet tea, tea, or Big Red coursing through their veins.

Surprise, Texans also have joint pain, knee pain, back pain, elbow pain and hip pain. Stiff and achy all over. Hard to get up out of the chair to get a refill. Oh yes, and rank 12th in national obesity. Read More.

Hmm. Now I a\have a question since Chai Tea is not in the list in the heading.

I drink decaf Chai Tea, am I also putting fluoride in my body with this tea? I drink it because it is claimed to be very high in Anti-Oxidants and anti-oxidants are suppose to help in killing free radicals.

Look forward to an answer.

This was news to me Linda. I like Rooibos Tea. And, unfortunately, it includes Rooibos and Chai teas. Let me give you the following link which is lengthy, but it will make your hair stand on end.

Thanks so much for this second article.


I went to the Numi Teas and found the Rooibos Chai. I believe I will be ordering it. Many years ago I ordered from a lady who grew and harvested her own herbs. I ordered many fresh herbs and dried herbs from her. She also had tea bags that were clean bags, so when I mixed my blends I put them in the bag. For whatever reason I quit ordering. Now I will order from Numis Teas.

Thank you for the tip Linda. I will order from them too and suggest them on my health forums.
