I love tea. As a result, I am writing this post to talk about some you should know. There are so many great ones to choose from. Today, I am going to talk to you about six medicinal teas. Teas that can help aid your body, so that it can keep you healthy. Drinking a tea for what ails you can keep you from using so many over the counter drugs. Drugs that help you with one thing as they wear and tear on your liver and kidneys. So, grab your favorite herbal tea and learn about 6 medicinal teas you should know.
CHAMOMILE. Chamomile tea is a good one. It is one of the teas that I grab for when I need to relax. Well beside helping with anxiety, it is also good for stomach problems. Such as nausea, diarrhea and cramps. It also helps to induce labor, treat acid reflux, relive a sore throat and so much more.
PEPPERMINT. Peppermint is also a fav of mine. It is one of my favorite calming teas, but that’s not all its good for. Peppermint tea is great for cold and flu, indigestion, and dental care. It is also a great addition to your weight loss journey, as it acts as an appetite suppressant. It can help with memory lost, since the mint leaf increases alertness.
HIBISCUS. I love the smell of hibiscus tea. Hibiscus is an antioxidant. Just like peppermint tea it is also good for a sore throat. Another thing that this tea and peppermint have in common is dental care. Hibiscus is good for the gums. It also helps to reduce high blood pressure. How amazing that a tea can do that?
LEMONGRASS. The smell of lemongrass always smells so calming to me. Lemongrass is also a calming tea. It also helps you with bloating, headaches, and exhaustion. So, I guess this would be a good tea to start the day with. Get some healing in the morning!
DANDELION. Dandelion is an amazing tea. Did you know that drinking dandelion tea can help with hepatitis, jaundice, and dyspepsia? Who knew a little herb could do all of that? It can also help with the formation of kidney stones.
ROOIBOS. Last but not least is Rooibos tea. I thought I would share this one because it has cancer-fighting properties. With so many chemicals that come with such a horrible disease maybe this herb can help the body in the fight against cancer, with less harm to the body. It also helps with skin irritations.
I love tea. I love the thought of a drink healing and aiding the body, so we can keep doing great things. These 6 medicinal teas you should know are worth a try. Do you drink tea? Do you ever use tea as medicine? What’s your thought process?
The only time I drink tea is when I need some form of herbal medicine. And I am quite familiar with these. Oddly, my favourite tea is strawberry and mango. Not sure if that does anything medicinal but sure tastes good!
I haven’t had those but that sound amazing!
I love these teas… but I admit, when I need a “cup of tea”… I LOVE a good strong black tea, no flavours. Just that feeling of “comfort food” – put the kettle on and everything will be alright in the world.
I love that! Everything is right with a cup of tea.
