Herb Teas

Herb teas are an effective way to improve your health. Herbs can tend to be too concentrated in a solid state, but not in the form of a tea. Mild teas are used daily for many conditions.

If many herbs are recommended for a disorder, it is best to rotate the herbs on a regular basis. This keeps the body from getting used to the herb.

When preparing herbs, use one to three teaspoons of herbs per cup of boiling water (or as otherwise recommended.) Pour the water into a mug, and allow to sit for five minutes. Do not store your herbs in a clear jar, because the herbs potency breaks down with light.
