Health Benefits
GREEN TEA (Camellia sinensis): Green tea is high in free radical fighting antioxidants which assists the body by protecting cells from damage. It improves heart health by lowering cholesterol and it can also assist in weight management by burning fat. Green tea can improve brain function due to its moderate caffeine content, however due to the presence of L-theanine you can get a much calmer and more productive caffeine boost than with coffee.
CALENDULA (Calendula): Calendula may improve the appearance of the skin with its re-hydrating properties, boost vision, lower inflammation, protect oral health and speed up healing.
PURPLE CORNFLOWER (Centaurea): Cornflower is rich in potassium and anti- inflammatory properties. It has been used traditionally to heal wounds. Cornflower is also good for digestive upsets like constipation and water retention.
ROSE PETALS (Rosa): Rose petals are packed with antioxidants as well as Vitamin A and E which is great for the skin. They can relieve menstrual pain (when used for a minimum of 3 months), remove toxins from the body and support digestive health. Rose petals also calm the nerves to help those suffering from insomnia, fatigue, depression and anxiety.
