Hemp tea as prevention
To maintain proper water intake and choose right liquids that our body is receiving is good to do all year long. Nevertheless, exactly autumn is a season when our body is weaker and therefore we should think more of prevention. One of the means that help to prevent a cold and flu are herbal teas. Hemp has also its place among herbs that can be used.
Hemp tea and its benefits
Hemp is a plant that grows very well in our climate. There is no need to fertilize it therefore also the plants that do not come from ecological farming are clean. Hemp tea is produced from registered species of technical hemp where there is very low content of the psychoactive substance THC. Tea therefore does not have any psychoactive effects (these effects are also not known in tea made from Indian hemp that has higher THC content).
Hemp tea positively affects the nervous system – it calms and relaxes, acts against sleeplessness, migraines, helps digestion. Its positive effects were also noticed by lowering of the blood pressure and cholesterol or by regulating the sugar level in blood. Hemp tea has a whole range of effects on human body which helps to strenghten the overall immunity.
How to prepare hemp tea?
Hemp tea is being prepared the same way as other herbal teas, that means for one cup we pour hot water over cca 1 table spoon of the dried herb and let it steep. Ideally something between 5 -8 minutes. If you let it steep for longer time, tea becomes bitter. As with all the herbs it is better not to use metalic tools. We drink tee hot, ideally.
Hemp can be combined with many other herbs. It is delicious with mint (mixture of hemp and tea is to be found in our offer) or melissa. For those who do not like herbal tea much, we have prepared a new mixture – hemp tea with fruits. It is a mixture of hemp, aronia fruits, amarelle, rose hip, cornflower and rose. You can find complete list of ingredients on the etiquette of the hemp tea. Hemp tea with fruits contains 50% of hemp what guarantees the above-mentioned effects of the tea, its flavour is distinctly fruity – mild and velvety.
