Here is why you MUST drink 2 Herbal Tea's per day.
What really happens to your body when you drink herbal tea's...
A few days back, we all committed to bringing herbal teas to our lifestyles. Let’s now look at a few reasons on why drinking herbal tea is important.
Before the fast-paced growth of modern medicines, herbs, and spices were used as medicine. If you even look at the science of Ayurveda or Traditional Chinese medicines, you will find encyclopedias filled with names of herbs and spices and what role they play in healing our bodies.
We underestimate the role of plants in healing, but plants are very potent. Herbal teas, are merely an opportunity for you to include more herbs in your everyday life.
We have a wealth of research showing the benefits of certain herbs for healing the body. For instance:
A study published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology found that chamomile tea may have anti-inflammatory properties and can help reduce inflammation in the body.
Another study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry found that peppermint tea can help improve digestion and relieve symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
Here is an article I have written talking about different herbal teas for different ailments.
Personally, punctuating my day with 2-3 herbal teas keeps my hunger away and helps me boost my mineral and vitamin intake. Herbal tea’s are also made without sugar and milk, thus, making for a healthier option when compared to Indian chai and coffee.
The entire process of making my own herbal tea, right from choosing my herbal blends to selecting my teaware is a meditative experience for me.
I have made myself a little tea stand at work, complete with stainless steel infusers and ceramic teapots.
I also love bringing back herbs from my travels to make my own blend.
Small lifestyle changes make a very big difference when done consistently.
