Stop drinking tea to absorb rust? Hahaha kidding
😀 It’s the nails I have to drop in my water – the rust turns the liquid orange… (joking). 😀
Does tea stop you absorbing iron?
I should probably reduce my intake then 😀
I know how hard it is to go without tea, so I definitely feel for you!
All caffeine stops the absorption of iron. But I only drink tea and not coffee so it’s the tea that has got to be reduced. I don’t know what I’m going to do without my 12 cups a day…
And this is where wine comes in… red wine in particular! I do hope you feel better Kate – I believe stout is very iron-y too. But irony contains no iron, apparently.
I am very much hooked on the Guinness at the moment. And yes I am feeling better – thank you. 🙂
