Scientists from the College of Medicine at the University of Washington in St. Louis found that instant tea contains dangerously high amounts of fluoride. Thus, 6.5 parts of fluorides per million were present in tea bags of ordinary strength, which significantly exceeds the permissible concentration. The fluoride content in different varieties of tea ranged from 1 to 6.5 parts per million, according to the online publication for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old Pannochka. net The maximum permissible concentration of fluorides in drinking water is 4 parts per million, while bottled mineral water should not contain more than 2.

4 parts per million.

According to one of the authors of the study, Professor Michael White, specialists are aware of the ability of tea leaves to accumulate fluorides from soil and water.. It is necessary to understand how the fluoride content depends on the type of tea and the year of its collection, the professor emphasized..

By the way, fluorides contained in tea in moderate doses can be useful for teeth and strengthen bones..
