A new research by Medical College of Georgia has shown that black tea contains higher concentrations of fluoride than previously thought.
"The additional fluoride from drinking two to four cups of tea a day won't harm anyone; it's the very heavy tea drinkers who could get in trouble," said Dr. Gary Whitford, Regents Professor of oral biology in the School of Dentistry.
Most published reports show 1 to 5 milligrams of fluoride per litre of black tea, but a new study shows that number could be as high as 9 milligrams.

Tea and coffee can prove good against fighting Heart Diseases.
Enjoy a cup of Coffee or Tea every Morning and Evening ? This might be good for you as it might help to fight against Heart Diseases, a 13-year-long study from the Netherlands has found.
Those who drank more than six cups of tea a day cut their risk of heart disease by a third, the study of 40,000 people found.
Consuming between two to four coffees a day was also linked to a reduced risk.
While the protective effect ceased with more than four cups of coffee a day, even those who drank this much were no more likely to die of any cause, including stroke and cancer, than those who abstained.
