We run a much higher risk of flurosis I think just brushing our teeth
and rinsing our mouth with toothpastes and mouthwashes that are
enhanced with fluoride. I am not surprised at the fluoride levels in
tea but would suggest that perhaps you should trying boiling your water
and test the boiled water first before presuming that it is the tea
that has elevated the fluoride level. I ask this out of scientific
curiosity because I am wondering if boiling the water might not release
and make more available the fluoride within the tap water? I know that
many minerals which are inactive in normal tap water are released
during the boiling process so I wonder if this might not hold true for
fluoride as well? I am not a scientist so I really don't have this
answer but certainly would like to know the answer?!

The test that I had run did not consider bioavailability of the fluorine. I was checking for how much fluorine was in the water. If anything an increase in fluorine would be due to some of the water evaporating off. But as you can tell from the levels, I would have had to start with almost 42 ounces of water and boil it down to the 6 i used to come up with that fluorine count.

As for elevated levels of fluoride in tea...Well most research I have
read surrounding tea always seems to be positive. But as with
everything in our modern world, I am certain that man made contaminents
are in our tea and in our food chain generally.
