The paper presents the results of measurements on tea samples collected during 1962 and 1973-1983 period for their natural radioactivity content. The radioisotopes studied under this programme are radium-226, thorium-228, and potassium-40. Tea was found to contain higher concentration of these radionuclides compared to other foodstuffs having vegetative origin. Interpretation for higher concentrations in tea compared to other foodstuffs is briefly given on the basis of agroclimatic conditions.
