New items from Mi Huerta!

 
Introducing new Mi Huerta teas!  We are currently offering 5 different flavors of Mi Huerta tea bags:   Chamomile, Linden, 7 Blossoms, Passion Flower, and Rinozanin
 

Chamomile is the most popular flavor.

Chamomile tea is one of the popular varieties of tea in the market and it has powerful anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic properties. Its top health benefits include its ability to protect the skin, lower stress levels, regulate sleep, and soothe menstrual cramps. It also boosts the immune system, treats gastrointestinal issues, and reduces belly bloating, among others.

What is Chamomile Tea?

Derived from the Asteraceae family of plants, the dried flowers of this plant are used for different herbal and natural remedies and poultices, as well as its most popular form – tea. These plants come in many forms, so chamomile tea in one part of the world may not be exactly the same as somewhere else, but the fundamental components of the plants are quite similar and provide similar effects. Studies have found that German and Roman varieties of chamomile tend to have the strongest concentrations of beneficial compounds and nutrients that can be imparted to those who drink this popular tea on a regular basis.

Apart from the pleasant taste and accessibility of chamomile tea, it has been praised over the years for its health benefits. The presence of flavonoids, sesquiterpenes, and other powerful antioxidants in this tea have significant effects on the human body. While it is commonly consumed as a beverage, the liquid can also be topically applied in certain cases to get relief from various skin issues.
 

Linden tea

The most interesting health benefits of Linden include its ability to improve the immune system, prevent certain forms of cancer, calm and detoxify the body, eliminate anxiety, lower inflammation, and lower blood pressure.

What is Linden?

Tilia is the name of the genus that contains varieties of trees named Linden, whose flowers, leaves, and extracts have been used for medicinal and decorative purposes for many years. The tilia genus members are often also called lime or basswood, and different types of linden have slightly different components and effects. Tilia cordata is the strongest type of tree, in terms of its medicinal effects, and is commonly known as little-leaf linden. This wide variety can be found throughout Europe and Western Asia and is 60-80 feet in height. Linden flowers are the most commonly used part of these trees, primarily because of the potency of linden flower tea, which is known to be very powerful as a treatment for a wide variety of conditions.

The flowers are yellow and once dried, they can be brewed as a delicious and potent tea, which is growing in popularity around the world as more research is being done. The health benefits of linden and linden tea are largely due to the high concentration of phytonutrients, flavonoids, and other diaphoretic substances. This unique mix of organic compounds has resulted in one of the most trusted and reliable herbal tea varieties on the market.
 

7 Blossoms Tea

 

 
7 Blossoms Tea contains Valerian, Lemon Balm, Orange Blossom, Linden, Devil’s hand tree flower, Passion flower, and Morning Glory.    To list all the health benefits of each ingredient would take an entire blog post by itself, so we aren’t even going to try here!
 

Passion Flower Tea

With a name like Passion Flower, it can only be something kind, gentle and calming from nature. While that doesn’t hold true for all sweet names, it does hold true for the passion flower, a wildflower of striking beauty that produces a fleshy fruit. There are many passion flower benefits, such as helping reduce and possibly eliminate insomnia, anxiety, inflammation from skin irritations and burns, menopause, ADHD and even more serious conditions such as seizures, high blood pressure and asthma just to name a few.
Passion flower is a plant in which the parts of the plant above the ground are used, in different forms, to provide natural healing purposes and food flavoring. You may have heard of passion flower tea or passion flower extract — and it’s also found as infusions, teas, liquid extracts and tinctures.
Studies have shown that passion flower may be just as effective as synthetic drugs for generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)!
A perennial, climbing vine, passion flower is typically grown in Europe but is native to the southeastern parts of America. Common names are maypop, apricot vine, passion vine and passiflore.
