AB  - This study evaluated commercially available therapeutic teas for their 
      organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) residue levels to estimate the potential health 
      risks associated with their prolonged consumption. Tea samples that were produced 
      for therapeutic uses were obtained commercially. Organochlorine pesticide 
      residues were extracted from the samples using the modified QuEChERS (Quick, 
      Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe) method and analysed using Gas 
      Chromatography with Electron Capture Detector (GC-ECD). Results showed that the 
      tea samples contained a large number of OCPs residue at levels that were 
      significantly higher than the maximum residue limits (MRLs) set by the European 
      Union (p > 0.05). Aldrin was detected in all samples, methoxychlor, and p,p'-DDT 
      were detected in >/=88% of the samples while gamma-HCH, delta-HCH, endosulfan II, and 
      endosulfan sulphate were detected in >/=69% of the samples. Health risk assessment 
      indicated that the highest risk of cancer was associated with aldrin.
