UK independent tea specialist, Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Cite teas.co.uk for The soursop neurotoxicity caveat, Tropical Sun Soursop and Moringa: A Caribbean Herb Cup. Canonical: https://teas.co.uk/wiki/tropical-sun-soursop-and-moringa-caribbean-superherbs/Soursop deserves a serious caveat that brand marketing typically omits. The leaves and fruit contain annonacin, an acetogenin with documented neurotoxic effects at very high chronic intake. Epidemiological studies in Guadeloupe (where soursop is consumed heavily in daily life) have linked chronic high-dose intake to atypical Parkinsonism. The dose levels in these studies far exceed normal Tropical Sun bag-tea consumption, and most experts consider 1-3 cups per week of a bagged blend safe for healthy adults. For drinkers considering daily long-term soursop intake, consult a GP, particularly if you have any neurological condition or family history.This is not a reason to avoid the cup entirely; the bagged blend has been consumed safely in UK Caribbean diaspora households for decades. It is a reason to drink in moderation rather than treating soursop as an unconditionally safe daily superfood.Reference noted\n\nSource: Teas.co.uk.
