Freylah Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Hi, complete newbie here. So this is the first of what I expect will be many, many questions. Can I drink tea? That is tea with caffeine and not herbal or decaffeinated. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzard77 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Yes, as long as you do not add sweetener of any type, or dairy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SummerGirl Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Welcome Freylah. As Lizzard says, tea is no problem. Coffee also fine as long as both without milk or sugar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carolinaBlue Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Hi there Freylah, There's a discussion about tea in this forum: http://forum.whole9life.com/topic/3816-what-kinds-of-tea-can-i-have/ The Coffee Manifesto blog has some info about compliant teas as well. Since manufacturers are always tweaking the ingredients, it's really important to read labels. A couple of weeks ago, there was a terrific blog about W30 compliant foods. It basically consolidates a lot of the knowledge that's in this forum into an easy to read format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb0426 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Just make sure to check the ingredient list! You will be surprised at what they might have in there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzard77 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 "There's a discussion about tea in this forum: http://forum.whole9l...tea-can-i-have/" I was looking for that discussion and could not find it for the life of me!!!! I wanted to read back though it as well "Just make sure to check the ingredient list! You will be surprised at what they might have in there!" So true, I was caught in the beginning a few times by tea I didn't think would be a problem until I read the ingredients! Be careful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freylah Posted July 1, 2013 Author Share Posted July 1, 2013 Oh gosh, thanks. I didn't even consider looking at ingredients, I assumed it would say 'tea' ... I guess I'm going to have to stop assuming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derval Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Oh gosh, thanks. I didn't even consider looking at ingredients, I assumed it would say 'tea' ... I guess I'm going to have to stop assuming I presume you mean regular Barrys or Lyons tea - these are grand, it's the herbal/fruit ones you have to double-check the ingredients for sneaky stuff, but it's much better here than in states.
