Health Benefits

Polyphenols (theaflavins, thearubigins) in this support are antioxidant and thus protect cells from oxidative stress.

Heart health: moderate reductions in blood pressure and cholesterol balance as a part of a healthy lifestyle are linked to regular consumption.

Mental alertness: natural caffeine plus L-theanine can provide a smoother high than coffee for many people.

Digestive & oral support: astringent tannins may feel settling after meals; tea polyphenols inhibit the growth of odour-producing oral bacteria.

Cautionary Notes

Caffeine: moderate/cup; limit if sensitive, pregnant or nursing (common advice is to limit total daily caffeine to 200 mg during pregnancy).

Tanning blocks non-haem iron uptake - avoid drinking with iron rich meals or supplements; leave 1-2 hours between meals or supplements.

Reflux / sensitive stomach: strong / empty-stomach brews can worsen heartburn - brew lighter & take with food.

Kidney stones - black tea has oxalates - moderate if you have calcium oxalate stones in your family and drink plenty of water.

Tea may decrease the absorption of some medicines (for example, levothyroxine; some mineral/iron supplements). Take medicines with water and separate by at least 2 hours.

Teeth stained by frequent strong tea - good oral hygiene helps.

Allergies/sensitivities: rare, but stop if adverse symptoms occur.

Are your teas certified organic?

Up until recently we were certified organic but due to rising administration costs and the difficulty of maintaining certification we've put this on hold for now. Our suppliers and farms remain the same without any change but just now label things are organic, pesticide free or wildcrafted.

This also allows us to maintain our current pricing without any increases which we feel is more important at this time.
