Detox Herbal Tea

A cup of a refreshing detox herbal tea is a refreshing and
easy way to introduce cleansing herbs into your diet. You
can find many varieties of herbal teas in whole foods and
health food stores and many of them will even state "detox"
or "cleanse" on the package.

Here are a few important tips in selecting a healthy
natural tea:

  • Choose only loose or bulk tea.

Teas packaged in teabags may contain chemical residue from
the processing of the teabag paper. If the package indicates
that the paper is unbleached and untreated paper, then you
can use those teabags. But in general, the freshest and most
potent herbal teas are those from the freshly ground and
packed herb. So stay with loose bulk tea! Why drink detox
tea packed in chemically-treated paper -- it contradicts the
entire purpose of a truly natural detox.
  • Get a tea ball, or a small spoon-shaped tea infuser.

Pack the loose herbs into it and then steep them in boiling
water. And if you don't want stray flakes of herbs floating
in your tea, you'll need a tea strainer as well, although it
certainly doesn't hurt to drink a few flakes of herbs! You
can get the tea ball and infuser right near the tea display
in your health food store. Follow the directions on the tea
package for how to prepare the tea. Most teas require two to
five minutes of steeping in boiling or hot water for maximum
taste and effectiveness and the package should give specific
instructions for this.

Look for a detox herbal tea to contain one or more of the
following:

  • Milk thistle (silymarin)
  • Peppermint
  • Watermelon seed
  • Celery seed
  • Ginger root
  • Dandelion root
  • Burdock root
  • Green tea
  • Cascara sagrada (this is a strong intestinal cleanser;
    do not use in excess)
  • or combinations of these herbs with other herbs
    such as alfalfa, chamomile or ginseng
