A gentle yet powerful cleansing blend filled with alterative herbs that are noted to nourish and push eliminatory organs helping to release buildup. Purpose: Alterative herbs hailed for centuries for their ability to assist the body in its “cleanup” process. Nourishing the liver, bowel, kidney and lymphatic system, this blend works gently with the body encouraging release of unwanted buildup through strengthening and support. Unfortunately, we live in a world filled with toxins, so no matter how “clean” we try to be, our bodies are exposed on a daily basis. By regularly supporting the eliminatory organs to do their job more effectively, our system can enjoy a little less unwanted buildup and weight. Each of these herbs are chosen specifically for their gentleness yet effectiveness in this process. Pick me if: You are looking for a cleansing blend that isn't laxative herbs. One that truly tends to eliminatory organs in a professionally formulated manner deeply, gently, and effectively. You may feel sluggish and "heavy" and want to help your body let go of extra buildup. Flavor profile: Rooty, earthy, with hints of spice and sweetness Organic Ingredients: Burdock root, Dandelion root, Chicory root, Cinnamon, Stinging Nettle leaf, Fennel seed, Anise seed, Cleavers aerials, Red Root, Red Clover aerials Caffeine Free Understanding the Ingredients: People often ask what my favorite “Detox” blend or herb is… I typically respond with this blend. Reason being, it is gentle yet powerful. The best way that I can explain it, is it goes into the body, offers the eliminatory organs food that they love and a gentle reminder that they might want to let some stuff go. Just a gentle invitation to let build up go while building up strength of those eliminatory systems. I included Burdock root for its wonderful liver tonic effects as well as its inulin levels creating a wonderful gut tonic and prebiotic offering. I added another liver tonic, Dandelion root, because it works with the liver in a different way to offer a more well rounded liver tonic effect from this blend. I then added red clover for its high nutritive levels as well as lymphatic system support but wanted to add in red root for even more lymphatic action. Cleavers bring lymphatic support as well as a kidney tonic effects. I couldn't leave out stinging nettle if we are going to ask the body to do such a task as cleanse. Cleansing can be extra work on the body so we should offer extra support and what better support than the nutritive powerhouse, Stinging Nettle. Much buildup leaves through the bowel so I included Fennel and Anise as bowel tonic and soothing herbs to assure a more comfortable process. Finally, I added a touch of chicory as a bold flavor as well as its traditional use as a “spring cleansing” herb in folk tradition. Notes: If you are looking to do a stronger cleanse, drink 1 tea bag or 2 TB in 24oz water per day until the package is gone. Do not fast during this since the body needs fiber to carry out some of this buildup. If you are looking to simply give your body a “treat”, drink any time you wish and know you are giving your insides a hug. Enjoy ;) Not your ordinary teabag: Our hand-made teabags are large since they are a full portion to provide you with the intended benefit and desired support. Each one may be re-steeped several times throughout the day. The brewed tea may also be saved in the fridge over night and enjoyed chilled the following day. They are each handcrafted in perfect measurement within a microplastic free teabag and hand stapled with a stainless steel staple. This is slow craft herbalism with care. {10 pack is 2.5oz and 3 pack is .75oz } Loose leaf or bagged are both created in very small batches in our woodland teahouse from thoughtfully sourced ingredients and professionally formulated by Leah, owner and clinical herbalist. HOW TO BREW: Bagged: Use 1 tea bag per 16 oz of 200 ºF water. Begin drinking when temperature is comfortable but never remove tea bag. Loose Leaf: Use 1.5 Tb per 16 oz of 200 ºF water and steep a minimum of 30 minutes. The longer these herbs steep the more potent the herbal infusion will be. The roots in this blend take awhile to open up. It's best if you can steep for hours- drink the brew and just keep adding water to the cup or kettle to continue the steeping process. Add sweetness if you prefer. Earth first packaging: Our packaging is intentionally minimal and environmentally conscious. The kraft bags holding our teas are 100% recycled and backyard compostable. Our teabags are compostable, as well as the herbs inside, once the staple is removed. They love to return to the earth. We are constantly seeking ways we can do better and lessen our impact.
