    Well iced tea has a lot of sugar in it (and citrus which explains the teeth part) but like

    with any treat if you over do it, it can have consequences, if u live an unhealthy life and drink lots of this stuff then in the end it will hurt u. But if you exercise, eat healthy, then there should be any real health concerns!

    Not in the event you brew it at dwelling and do not upload sugar. I'm not ever with out my physical activities bottle of iced tea. My document even requested one time what was once in it, what I more commonly drank, and whilst I instructed him he mentioned it was once very healthful on account that it had no sugar and to hold ingesting it for the water content material.

    Dont drink anything with "zero calories" that crap has bad stuff in it. iced tea is good but you should drink real tea from actual tea

    leaves. nothing powdered

    read the ingredients on the pack,if it has sugar in it,yes it will rot your teeth and make you gain weight,if it has artificial sweetners in it,these are basically just chemicals(manmade and totally bad for you),why not try some herbal or fruit tea bags,you may still need to add sugar/honey but they are natural and gotta be better for you x just make sure you brush your teeth well and chew sugar free gum in between x
