herbal teas??

[mamadonna]

I really love a herbal tea every now and then but not sure which ones are safe for me to drink,and can't find much info

The thing is I had my thyroid removed so need to know what's safe when using thyroxine
Also which ones are safe when ttc or in pregnancy!!

Any info is muchly appreciated thank you x

As far as im aware its just RLT you have to avoid. Green tea is amazing for you but takes a while to get use to it. Just check the packs though as some do still have a bit of caffeine in them x

HI Mammadonna

I love my fruit teas too....but my advice is to avoid Green Tea, your thyroxine won't thank you for drinking it, as I believe they don't get on too well.
There are a few differing opinions on it, but lots of articles showing that Green tea and thyroxine aren't good friends. If there's even a hint that it will react with my thyroxine absorbtion then i won't touch it.

With regards to my favourite fruit teas....peppermint, "strawberry & mango" and "strawberry & raspberry" are fighting for shelf space in my cupboard right now, but Twinings "Maple & Camomile" is absolutely rocking my world !!
