If you have the occassional cup of tea, you should be okay. Large amounts of tea will block iron absorption. I read that you would have to drink about 4-5 6 oz. cups of it per day in order for it to start working against the iron.

Vitamin C enhances non-haem iron absorption, whilst phytate and polyphenols (including tannin found in tea and other beverages such as coffee and red wine) are major inhibitors of non-haem iron absorption. Thus, the iron absorbed from a meal containing non-haem iron may be doubled if the meal is taken with a glass of orange juice or reduced to one-third if taken with tea.

At least one person reports adverse effect and reaction to tea so do your research, ask a doctor next time..
