Crazy Chemicals in Tea

"No coffee for me, I drink tea."

Dear fellow tea-sippers,



You think you're healthy, don't you?

Well I am here to tell you, you are probably not. I know, it's a hard blow to take. This whole time we thought we were being health conscious and mature. When we order tea or brew it yourself we are in huge danger of ingesting pesticides and GMO's ....Yup - they got us again. 

"Teavana tea was tested by an independent lab and 100% of it was found to contain pesticides. One tea in particular, Monkey Picked Oolong, contained 23 pesticides.... 62% of the teas tested contained traces of endosulfan, a pesticide that has been banned by the U.S., China, the E.U.,..."


Damn you GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISMS


Tea 2


Don't let anyone tell you they are "okay" in small doses - They. Are. Not. Okay.

Excerpt from my Public Policy paper on GMO's:
"The genetically modified foods that have been approved by the FDA are considered by the government to be as safe as untouched natural foods and animals. So what is the problem you ask? The problem lies in the fact, or better yet the absence of fact in the unknown consequences to modifying the natural state of organisms through unfamiliar gene expression. Since these alterations change the organism’s internal make up, it will elicit an unknown response to the external environment and those who consume it. Disorders such as autism, reproductive disorders, digestive problems, and others are all on the rise since the introduction of GMOs, but there isn’t enough sufficient research to confirm that GMOs are a main contributing factor ( IRT, 2013)."




I urge you all to do your own research so you can protect yourself and make informed decisions because the food industry won't tell you where there are GMO's so suspect they're everywhere. 
Many countries have already started labeling their foods, isn’t it about time that “the greatest nation in the world” did so too? BTW: The term "Natural" stands for shit, don't let it fool you because it sounds good - It's not.



 I know I won't stop drinking tea, but I will take control over what I put in my body and so should you. There are better choices like organic & non-GMO certified brand of tea : Numi, Traditional Medicinals, and Rishi Tea 





This article will help you all make smarter choices on teas.
