Tea is not the only thing that "causes" osteoporosis. The culprit is caffeine. Caffeine leaches calcium straight out of the bones- tea, coffee, caffeinated soda, and chocolate are the worst. Also, a diet high in protein will do the same thing. This is why we live in a country with the highest per-capita milk consumption and the highest level of osteoporosis. The body doesn't benefit from the calcium in milk because of digestive issues. The human body does much better getting calcium out of plants.

Please pass on the info to everyone who lets their kids drink chocolate milk everyday!
