Anything that contains antioxidants is something that you want to get into your system on a daily basis. Antioxidants are what fight off free radicals in your body, strengthen your immune

system and can also give you radiant skin. Over a period of time, antioxidants can be a great support for eye, heart and even memory problems. Black, green and white

tea are loaded with antioxidants. Oolong tea tops the list too.

Due to the amount of herbs that are in herbal tea, some of them can even slow down the aging process. Rooibos tea is one of these because it contains

polyphenols that help to keep your body’s cells in great condition. Some other teas you might want to try are dandelion tea (it aids in digestion and reduces breakouts), kombucha (it

detoxifies the skin and when applied to your body, can soothe sunburn) and dandelion (it’s full of antioxidants and immune enhancing properties). Another great tea for your skin is peppermint.

It contains menthol to remove excess oil and also get rid of dead skin cells.

Some of the best detoxifying herbal teas include milk thistle (the ultimate liver detoxifier), matcha (it contains antioxidants, chlorophyll, and natural antibiotics to fight off bacterial infections) and jasmine (it

contains antiviral and antibacterial properties to keep your immune system strong). Drink some if you want to clean out your system, drop a couple of pounds or clear up your

skin.

Do you need a drink to get you through any midday stress you might feel? Hands down, chamomile tea is the answer! It has a lot of relaxing properties. It

also contains quercetin to protect your skin from damage that sun can cause. 

Other teas to top this stress-relief list include lemon balm (it reduces your body’s level of cortisol, a stress-hormone)

and valerian. Aside from it also being able to lower cortisol, it also can reduce inflammation your body or brain may have.

Chamomile is great for helping you get some sleep too. So is lavender tea due to its calming properties, passion flower (because of the flavonoids that help to keep you

calm), golden rod (because it helps to promote serotonin production in the brain) and ginseng. Ginseng is wonderful when it comes to helping your body to better cope with stress and

anxiety so that you can rest and relax easier.

If you’re someone who knows you’re not getting as much water into your system as you should, this is just one more reason to drink more herbal tea. Since it contains

more water than anything else, herbal tea is an easy—and more flavorful—way to boost your water intake. 

If you’re feeling nauseous, try ginger. Dealing with hot flashes? How about some

red clover? Cinnamon is proven to fight off viruses, hibiscus has a lot of Vitamin C in it and rosehip is awesome at restoring tissue health. 

Just add some local raw

honey and your immune system will be thanking you all day for giving it a taste of the greatness that herbal tea has to offer!
