In case anyone was curious about fluoride content, I contacted Now and DSM about the fluoride contents of their green tea products. Their responses:
Now Foods: In our EGCG, flouride analysis shows less than 13mcg per capsule and the
regular Green Tea capsules are 98 mcg.
Seems like pretty low amounts to me, but would that amount be okay for people with thyroid problems?
DSM (Teavigo): No fluoride.
Both products are derived from China, and neither are organic. Now Foods stated they used third party analysis of their product, but when I asked for a COA, they stated they don't sent them out. I expect the Now products are probably perfectly fine, but I find it odd they won't provide customers with a copy of their COA.
Anyone happen to know of a green tea extract not derived from China, organic, and caffeine and fluoride free?
