Any coffee and tea drinkers here? [View all]

Did you know that coffee and tea deplete our bodies of certain B vitamins? I thought you had to drink pots of the stuff for you to suffer that kind of problem. I was wrong. My three cups of black tea and one cup of coffee a day was enough to do it for me. (I don't drink soda, diet or regular.)

I felt sick for a couple of days and couldn't look at tea or coffee. That broke my habit and even when I felt well again, I decided not to start drinking black tea or coffee again.

I found that I lost weight and had greater energy. My skin is also nicer.

Apparently the tea and coffee was depleting my body of vitamins and minerals.

I just wanted to share that with you in case it helps someone.
