Dear all:


I subscribe to an email alert on thryoid issues and thought this particular interview with the author of Politically Incorrect Nutrition, may be of interest to everyone on the board.


I haven't read the book, but I was surprised about what he says about green tea, soy products and fluoride in our water.


I grew up in Boston and always knew that the water contained fluoride.  I moved to California when I was 15, and the drinking water tastes terrible, so I've been drinking bottle water ever since.  I'll never know if the fluoride caused me to have thyroid problems, but .. ya never know.  It seems like we are forever being poisoned for profit.


Anyway, enough babble .. here's the link:

hi Monica - I tried to answer this one last night but couldn't. Thanks for the link! We know all about the dangers of soy, green tea and floride. A reminder is always helpful. Thanks again! Cathy :)
