Here is a guide to several different types of tea:



























Aloe Vera Tea  - aloe vera plants are members of the lily family native to Africa.   Aloe tea made with the loose herbs, honey and mint is a great tea for digestive problems.  Aloe loose herbs are also used for sunburn.  Soak in a cool bath with a few tablespoons of aloe vera to take the sting out of your sunburn and to promote healing.
 
Anise Tea - tea made from this herb is sometimes used as a diet aid.  Anise tea is sweet and spicy - drink it when you crave something sweet.  You will have the added benefit of sweet breath.
 
Blessed Thistle - this herb is especially helpful for women as it regulates hormone balance.  One caveat - it also is an appetite stimulant.  Therefore, it is an excellent herbal tea for a sick person who has lost their appetite
 
Burdock Tea - Burdock is a member of the thistle family and  is a time tested remedy for rheumatism due to the fact that it is a fantastic cleanser of uric acid and waste.  Relieve your painful joints with some burdock tea with honey and milk. It also supports healthy intestinal flora which is one of the steps in naturally fighting yeast infections.
 
Cranberry Tea - fight frequent bladder infections by drinking either hot or iced cranberry tea.  Cranberry is a powerful E. Coli fighter and has the advantage over cranberry juice by being 100% cranberry with no additives.
 
Feverfew Tea - warm feverfew tea is relaxing and makes a wonderful tonic to treat and prevent migraine headaches.  Fewerfew is a natural antihistamine so it also is effective against allergic reactions and hay fever.
 
Pau d'Arco Tea helps build your immune system. Click here to go to our Pau d'Arco page.
