Health Benefits of Herbal Tea
The benefits of herbal teas are as numerous and varied as the herbs themselves. Made from herbs, fruits, seeds or roots steeped in hot water, herbal teas have lower concentrations of antioxidants than green, white, black and oolong teas. Their chemical composition varies widely depending on the plant used.
Knowing which benefits you may like to achieve – such as sleeping better, soothing joint pain, or overcoming sluggishness – can help you narrow down the list of options and choose the right herbal blend for your individual or your customer’s needs.
One of the main reasons why herbal tea is so celebrated is because it allows people to reap the health benefits of various herbs, spices and plants through a format that is easy to consume and digest. Most people would find it quite difficult (and not particularly pleasant) to consume healthful ingredients like cinnamon or lavender in their raw form. But by steeping them into a tasty warm beverage, you can easily add these spices and flowers into your diet on a daily basis in a way that is both enjoyable and sustainable.
