Organic Is Best

Most teas contain pesticides as well as fluorides. The pesticides in the tea may be cancelling out the powerful antioxidant effects of the tea. Wine is usually loaded with pesticides, and so is nonorganic coffee. If you choose to drink tea, wine, and coffee, then drink only organic teas, wines, and coffees in moderation. To make sure you can always choose organic tea wherever you go, simply carry some organic tea bags in your purse.

Organic food is defined as having been produced without the use of artificial pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Not everything that claims to be organically grown is truly organic.

Look out for this seal, which indicates that the produce has met the USDA's standards for being certified as organically grown.
