Allerg-ease Tea

Nettles Leaves (Urtica dioica)

Nettles are weeds that you probably see every day without knowing there is a treasure is in front of you. Once used in Europe to create fine cloths and paper, nettles have one of the highest chlorophyll levels among plants. It is nutrient-rich, packed with Vitamins A, B2, C, and K, and has calcium, iron, and potassium. Though it may sting when you touch it, its high iron content combats lethargy and anemia, making it worth it.

Mullein Leaves  (Verbascum thapsus)

Mullein's uses have varied over time. The Cherokee used it for rashes, Creek Indians drank its roots for coughs, and other tribes smoked the roots or dried leaves to treat asthma. For all of these reasons, herbalists favor mullein to remedy respiratory disorders, including seasonal allergies, asthma, and coughs.

Plantain Leaves (Plantago major)

Quite different from the plantains many of us grew up eating, the herb plantain is a garden weed and silent powerhouse. It has bioactive compounds that balance the histamine response, making it great for allergies. Plantain is used for symptoms such as a runny nose, itchy and watery eyes, and sneezing. It has many other benefits, including having anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, analgesic (pain-relieving), and vulnerary (wound healing) properties.

Preparation

Tips

Considerations

Shake well before each use. Settling is normal.

• Use 1 teaspoon of herbs per cup (8oz) of water.

• Place herbs in a mug or tea infuser (preferable).

• Heat water to just before boiling and pour over herbs. Cover and let steep for 15-20 minutes.

• Strain and enjoy.

Teas can be refrigerated for up to 48 hours.

You can add more herbs to make a stronger tea.

• For optimum flavor, use distilled or spring water.

• Enjoy 1-2+ cups daily for at least three days to achieve the full benefit.

• Loose leaf herbs (such as this one) can be reused the same day. The flavor profile will change, but many people prefer their second or third brew! Add a little more of the herbs to each additional blend and see what happens!

• Store herbs in airtight containers in cool, dark places.

• Best when used within 1 year of opening. After a year, let your nose and eyes be your guide. Over time, more of the blend is needed to have the same effect.

• This is not recommended for children.

• Do not use during pregnancy or lactation without the advice of a qualified healthcare practitioner.

“As a sufferer of hay fever, I most recently started using the Allerg-ease tea and Allergy-ease facial steam...this was a game changer. This year my allergies have been extremely active and I would steam often and only receive minimal relief from other products. The Allerg-ease products made me feel truly relieved of any pain and stuffiness I was experiencing. Eden’s leaves has an array of products to suit many health needs and in a time of great concern for wellness, I feel blessed to have found something pure and natural to fill that need. Eden’s leaves has become a household name in my family and I share the good news to encourage all family and friends to try it out!”
