Simply Natural Organic Roasted Dandelion Root Herbal Tea (30 Tea Bags) - Caffeine FreeDANDELION OVERVIEW INFORMATION: Dandelion is a very rich source of beta-carotene, which we convert into vitamin A. This flowering plant is also rich in vitamin C, fiber, potassium, iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc, and phosphorus. It is a good place to get B complex vitamins, trace minerals, organic sodium, and even vitamin D. Dandelion contains protein too, more than spinach. It has been eaten for thousands of years and used to treat anemia, scurvy, skin problems, blood disorders, and depression. Dandelion is used for loss of appetite, upset stomach, intestinal gas, gallstones, joint pain, muscle aches, eczema, and bruises. Dandelion is also used to increase urine production and as a laxative to increase bowel movements. It is also used as skin toner, blood tonic, and digestive tonic. Some people use dandelion to treat infection, especially viral infections, and cancer. In foods, dandelion is used as salad greens, and in soups, wine, and teas. The roasted root is used as a coffee substitute. How does it work?Dandelion contains chemicals that may increase urine production and decrease swelling (inflammation). i.

Caffeine Free Herbal TeaSOME Health Benefits of Dandelion and Dandelion Root:Digestive Aid – Acts as a mild laxative that promotes digestion, stimulates appetite, and balances the natural and beneficial bacteria in the intestines.Kidney –Helps the kidneys clear out waste, salt, and excess water.

The leaves are especially rich in the antioxidants and phytonutrients that combat cancer.Diabetes –Helps regulate blood sugar and insulin levels.High Blood Pressure – As a diuretic dandelion increases urination, which then lowers blood pressure. The fiber and potassium in dandelion also regulate blood pressure.Cholesterol – Studies have shown that dandelion lowers and control cholesterol levels.Gallbladder –Increases bile production and reduces inflammation to help with gallbladder problems and blockages.Inflammation –Contains essential fatty acids and phytonutrients that reduce inflammation throughout the body. This can relieve pain and swelling.Immune System –Boosts immune function and fights off microbes and fungi. Dandelion leaves, flowers, and roots are all edible. They have a slightly bitter flavor that can be minimized by harvesting them in the fall or spring. Cooking cuts the bitter flavor as well though the leaves make a great addition to raw salads. Frequently Asked Questions:1) Why is tea a good delivery system? The body must absorb herbal preparations efficiently. Sufficient evidence exists demonstrating that Traditional Herbal Medicine (THM) in a liquid form (fluid extracts, tea decoctions or infusions, syrups, tinctures) are more readily absorbed into the system than if they are dried for use in a solid-dosage form (capsules and tablets). A tea infusion allows the natural interactions between the various components in the herbs to occur. Water is an inexpensive, pure and readily available extraction solvent, is non-toxic and has a wide range of solvent actions. Most of the major compound groups occurring in plants are either soluble in boiling water or will release into the water in time, due to the interactions occurring during the water extraction process. 2) What will Organic Dandelion Root do for me? Dandelion root tea has shown "choleretic" effects, which means that it can stimulate the liver to increase bile flow. * Once the liver releases bile, its two main functions are to carry away waste and to break down fats during digestion. 3) How do I know it works? Dandelion's beneficial effects on liver and biliary tract function have been proven in many studies. * 4) How does it taste? A pleasant roasted taste, sweet and slightly bitter. Quality: Our teas are 100% free from pesticides and chemicals. They are naturally grown & never fumigated or irradiated, and are hand picked & naturally dried.Preparation:For maximum benefit, herbal tea must be properly prepared. Pour 8 oz. freshly boiled water over one tea bag in a cup. Cover cup and steep 5-10 minutes. These steps directly influence the amount of beneficial components that will end up in your tea-up! Gently squeeze the tea bag to release the remaining extract. Caution: Dandelion is generally considered safe in food and medicinal levels. Some people may have allergic reactions to dandelion. Anyone with an allergy to ragweed, chrysanthemum, marigold, chamomile, yarrow, or daisy should avoid dandelion and anyone pregnant, nursing, or taking prescription drugs should talk to a health care professional before adding something new to their diet Water Temp °F (°C) Quality of Water Quantity of Leaf (1-2 tsp OR 1 tea bag, per 6-8 oz water) Steep Time (minutes) # of Infusions 212°F (100°C) Best with Spring or Filtered Water 1-2 5-10 1-2 Recommended Adult Intake: 2 Servings Per Day Ingredients: Dandelion Root NOTE: Herbal teas with light, delicate blossoms or leaves require somewhat shorter steeping times and lower temperatures than other more hearty herbs. We recommend using 1 - 2 teaspoons of leaf per 8 oz of water at a rolling boil (212 F) and steeping 5 to 10 minutes. This provides a sweeter, better tasting brew while repeated infusions allow you to extract all the nutritional and medicinal benefits from the herb. Herbal teas can be brewed in porcelain, ceramic, glass, or stainless steel but never in aluminum or other harmful materials. Be sure to cover the cup or teapot while steeping to prevent the loss of fragrant essential oils and other therapeutic and nutritional elements.Shelf Life: Our products will maintain their freshness and integrity for up to 18 months after purchase.
