The benefits of a detox tea
Oolong tea
This funny named tea is full of essential vitamins and minerals as well as important antioxidants. Oolong tea can improve mental performance, aid a good metabolism, promote healthy skin and even prevent tooth decay. It is high is caffeine, so be warned!
Liquorice
Liquorice root has been used for its medicinal benefits for thousands of years, thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties and impressive respiratory cleansing uses. It’s also great for boosting the immune system and is even a natural anti-depressant.
Ginger
Oh, how I love ginger - the warming taste instantly feels like it’s doing me good! It’s high in a substance called gingerol which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and may even help to prevent cancer.
Fennel
Fennel is high in antioxidants and immune system loving vitamin C. Fennel may also protect the liver from toxic damage. As the liver detoxifies the body it’s a good idea to keep it in check.
Schisandra berries
This is the first time I’ve heard of this berry so it’s been interesting to scour the web searching for its benefits and what exactly it is. It’s a bright red berry which is great for detoxing as it helps protect the liver from harmful toxins, reduces stress and has anti-inflammatory properties.
Peppermint
Soothing and delicious peppermint aids digestion by boosting liver function. It may also prevent damage to the liver from harmful toxins.
Lemon grass
Regularly consuming lemongrass tea can help to cleanse and detox the body thanks to its diuretic and purifying effects.
Dandelion leaves
I remember when I was a child being told ‘dandelions make you pee’ and it’s actually true as they are a diuretic! Regular urination cleanses the kidneys and rids the body of unwanted toxins. It’s regularly used to treat digestive problems and can act as a laxative.
