Guest guest Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 All tea is not the same I am finding. The older the leaves, the more fluoride in them. Someone is looking at this and doing something about it so we can get the benefits of tea without OD'ing on fluoride. http://www.teaforhealth.com/ Dr Lee had a summary of articles on tea and fluoride in tea. http://www.greenteahaus.com/ Dorothy ........

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Also, one way you can tell if it is a detox headache isdrinking the celtic salt water, then plain water, than a bitlater doing it again. If your headache goes away, it wasfrom the bromide detoxing. If not it was another cause.From Hypothyroidism, at my worst, I would get terribleheadaches from stress, especially exercise.AliOn Dec 8, 2008, at 8:04 AM, violeta099 wrote:Since I started taking the iodine/iodide, I have been getting the headache that is described as a detox of bromine. One interesting thing about it is that I've had that headache before in the past year or so. Sometimes I get it from eating eggs. I did a search on eggs here to see if anyone else had problems with them, but it seems as if everyone else is okay with them. I quit drinking green and oolong tea 3 days ago, and I had the headache worse than ever yesterday and the day before. I had read that tea contains fluoride, but I guess I didn't think it contained enough to cause any real health issues. But I was starting to be able to tell that it was bothering me, so I quit. One other time I had the headache was when I had cut back on sun exposure because of what I had read about Vit D at The Marshall Protocol Study site. Trevor Marshall's protocol is built on the premise that a nanobacteria gets inside immune system cells, messes up the Vit D receptors, and then sort of shuts down your immune system. When you shut off the supply of Vit D, your immune system kicks in and causes die off. So I am wondering if there is some sort of tie-in between the bromine, fluoride, and nanobacteria. Does anyone know, are bacteria attracted to bromine and excess fluorine? It's interesting, too, that most of the people there have thyroid issues, which seem to get better with his protocol. (His protocol consists of a lot of antibiotics and other drugs, and I did NOT do that, nor am I saying that anyone else should do that.) I am just trying to figure out if there is any tie-in.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Two times, approximately 3 months each time, I made and drank Kombucha tea. At first it would make me feel better, but then it threw me off balance. Just yesterday I was wondering if the fluorine accumulated in my body. Also, although I didn't notice the caffeine bothering me, it may have been. I suppose if I ever drank green tea, or any tea, again, it would have to be decaf. I couldn't afford Dr Lee's top of the line stuff either. Dr. Mercola sells a green and black tea that he says are caffeine and fluorine free. They are liquids; you add about 15 drops to hot water. I tried it but wasn't real happy about the taste. My daughter likes it, though. Betsy -- In iodine , " dorothyroeder " <dorothyroeder@...> wrote: > > I will probably try it next time I order tea.

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 A little while back I was drinking lots of tea - like all day long. And then I got the most horrid screaming wrenching dreadful cluster leg cramps. Found out that the tannins in tea can bind to minerals and make them unavailable. That was so scary that I never want to go there again. Now I just have one or two cups a day. Moderation is the key I guess.
