Research supports herbal tea profile

(NC)—Today, many people are taking Floressence, a powerful tea because they are suffering from minor difficulties or major problems. The herbs in this formula, so synergistically powerful in cleansing and healing, are very common plants that grow all over North America. They have been studied extensively and have a wide range of therapeutic properties:

Burdock Root: Active ingredients include 45% inulin, essential oils, vitamins and a broad array of minerals. The Chinese consider burdock to be strengthening and nutritive, making it an excellent tonic. It is traditionally used to cleanse and detoxify. Burdock can help protect cells against several toxic chemicals.

Sheep Sorrel: This herb provides strong immune support and is a good source of vitamin C. Sheep sorrel was traditionally used to cool fevers and to aid in the removal of wastes by increasing urine flow.

Slippery Elm: Folk medicine ascribes many traditional uses to slippery elm bark, which contains large amounts of mucilage. It is especially noted for its property of soothing inflammatory irritation and strengthening all the digestive organs.

Turkish Rhubarb: This herb provides support to the digestive system, colon, liver and blood. This helps the body to detoxify, particularly in the bowels. It also helps neutralize harmful microorganisms in the gut.

Blessed Thistle: It is prized for its bitter properties. Blessed thistle studies have shown that the herb normalizes the flow of digestive secretions, relieving indigestion and liver congestion symptoms and normalizing bowel movements. Blessed thistle is also anti—bacterial.

Red Clover: It is a blood purifier and facilitates the elimination of wastes and toxins through the skin, kidneys and bowels. Red clover has been used by many cultures to treat serious health conditions.

Kelp: Used traditionally for the nutritive benefits of its abundant minerals, kelp is a great source of iodine, which helps regulate energy levels. The alginates in kelp protect against radiation by products such as strontium 90, plutonium and cesium and the health issues that can be a result of this radiation.

Watercress: An aromatic edible wild plant, this superior food is a rich source of chlorophyll, vitamins A and C and many minerals including iron and iodine. Watercress has been found to have value in treating joint complaints and some circulatory problems.

(NC)—With the cost of food on the rise, there's no better time to start growing your own organic herbs, fruits and vegetables. The best part about incorporating edible items into the garden (aside from the taste and health benefits) is that you don't need to be an avid gardener or have a large garden space to get started.

Herbs and vegetables can easily be grown right in your backyard garden or in containers on your patio or balcony. Certain items such as tomatoes come in a variety of vibrant colours and when mixed in with traditional flowers and plants, make for breathtaking displays.
