Just read a post about brewing different types of tea and I desperately want a cup. Or two. Or three. I am going into serious tea withdrawal. Unfortunately one thing about tannins (which are found in tea leaves) is that they affect your bodies ability to absorb iron.
On a normal day this affects me not at all. However I am trying to donate blood which means I need to get my iron levels a little higher. I swear though, once I pass the hemoglobin test and let someone stick a needle in my arm I am going to drink as much tea as I want.
