Gentle, supportive and helpful. Promotes healthy skin, liver and kidney function. Living in an increasingly toxic world can take a toll on your body, even your skin. Responding to such concerns, our herbalists created this tea to help beautify skin by gently stimulating the body’s natural detoxification process. By helping the liver break down fats during digestion and by promoting flushing of the kidneys, the herbs in this tea gently support the body’s ability to carry away wastes. Pleasantly mild, bittersweet, and earthy, this tea is a classic European herbal combination of burdock root, stinging nettle and cleavers blended with lemon myrtle for a lemony-citrus taste.

*Balanced bittersweet, with hints of aromatic citrus.

Recommended Use:

Burdock is traditionally used in Herbal Medicine as an alterative to help remove accumulated waste products from the body; Stinging nettle is used in Herbal Medicine as a nutritive tonic.

Recommended Dose:

Adults: Drink 1 cup (2 tea bags) 2 times daily.

Directions for Use:

Pour 240 mL freshly boiled water over 2 tea bags and steep, covered, for 10-15 minutes. Gently squeeze the tea bags to release the remaining extract.

For prolonged use, consult a healthcare practitioner.

Cautions:

Consult a healthcare practitioner before taking if you have diabetes. There is limited evidence from preclinical studies that burdock may have hypoglycemic activity. Use by adults with renal failure and/or diabetes, and/or heart failure should be avoided because of possible complications due to hyperkalemia. Consult a healthcare practitioner if symptoms persist or worsen.

Contraindications:

Adverse Reactions:

In sensitive individuals, mild gastrointestinal upset (nausea, vomiting and diarrhea) or allergic reactions (itching, exanthema, hives) may occur from use of stinging nettle.
