If you’re fond of an egg or two in the morning, whatever you do DON’T reach for a good old cuppa with that! The British Dietetic Association has announced that it is best NOT to drink tea with meals as the benefits of iron-rich food may be prevented from entering the body when consumed with tea. Instead they suggest drinking a Vitamin C rich drink as Vitamin C AIDS the absorption of iron. Don’t despair though if you are a tea lover. A cup of tea as a mid-morning pick me up, an afternoon perk or a relaxing evening drink is fine, just best avoided at meal times. So THAT'S where I've been going wrong.....
