Advantages of Herbal Teas

Herbal teas have long been known to have medicinal benefits as well as being tasty to drink. Some of the most popular include chamomile tea, jasmine tea and ginger tea. Each has a distinctive taste as well as health benefit.

Chamomile tea is a favorite that many use if they have trouble sleeping. Chamomile serves as a natural sedative, anti-inflammatory and anti-spasmodic so it is also good for cramps.

Because of its calming benefits, chamomile is often used to help relieve anxiety. It is rich in essential oils and can help the digestive system function properly.

Chamomile is also good for your skin; you can wet a cloth in the tea and use it as a skin cleanser or compress.

Jasmine herbal teas have a lovely scent and flavor with all the wonderful antioxidant properties of green tea. Jasmine has long been known for its relaxing and warming qualities -- and soothing nature to the digestive system.

It also may help lower cholesterol, according to recent studies and may even help with longevity.

Ginger teas have powerful medicinal properties. Ginger is reputed to be an aphrodisiac and can help freshen breath. It has anti-fungal and anti-spasmodic properties -- and can help soothe stomach upset by neutralizing acids and aiding digestion.

Ginger is also reputed to help relieve nausea, motion sickness, dizziness, flatulence and even help to ease muscle pain.

For preparation,use one tea bag per person or, if you are using dried herbs, use one teaspoon of the herb. Add boiling water to the herb mixture and let steep for five minutes.

Don’t let the brew sit for too long or it will start to taste bitter. Also, don’t drink it too soon or the herb won’t have fully imparted its flavor into the water.
