FLOURIDE in tea? ALL tea?
How’s that?
Shalom Miri,
Please check out this site (among many) http://poisonfluoride.com/pfpc/html/tea.html
You can google “fluoride in tea” and get more info. Dr. Mercola has a lot on his site about it too. He highly recommends no tea.
Shalom,

i immediately researched this and found a lot on it! Thx for telling us! I’m not much of a tea drinker, but am rabid about fluoride since the 80′s because of a low thyroid condition I am convinced was caused by fluoride! I’ve done everything I know to do – from Berkey quadruple filtered water to kelp, but still am dependent on meds.
As far as fluoride goes, could there be a difference in fluoride that’s a by product of aluminum production and that which they dump in our water supplies and toothpaste, etc, and fluoride that’s found naturally in the ground or in nature and is not the danger the other is?
I have no idea. I’ve never studied the subject at all. I’m just wondering because for example, the whole deal with the Erin Brockovich story is, the chemical poisoning was Hexavalent Chromium.
They got away with it so long because it was CHROMIUM and told people that is was harmless. You can buy chromium as a supplement, but it is NOT Hexavalent Chromium and is a beneficial mineral…I guess it’s a mineral…helps metabolize sugar or level blood sugar, I can’t remember. Anyway, Hexavalent Chromium is a poison that causes cancer and birth defects and all kinds of horrible things.
SOOO, because of that, now I have the questions in my mind in reference to fluoride:
1. Is there such a thing as a harmless or even perhaps beneficial fluoride found in nature?
2. Is the fluoride being found in tea, fluoride ‘fall out’ from chemical/aluminum production fall out?
3. Or are all forms of fluoride (or is there only one?) detrimental to humans?
As I say every now and then on my fb status, clearly I have more questions than answers. But that doesn’t stop me from thinking and asking…lol!
Or perhaps tea produces fluoride inside the plant itself? Arrrgh.
Thank you for your article. I would like to learn more about kefir, ie: where and how to get started, where to get the kefir grains. Also what is kvass?
Shalom Pat
I apologize for not seeing your comment earlier! I hope you get this. You can order healthy, live grains from KefirGrains4U.blogspot.com ANy help you may need you can email them or me KulturedKaraite@gmail.com.
Kvass is a probiotic drink which was originally made from soaking loaves of rye bread or fermenting beets. Beet kvass is extremely healthy because not only is it probiotic but it is a blood and liver purifier.
Thank you for listening!
