Yes, I can recommend some teas. An easy kind to start with, would be in the family of green and white teas. These are delicately flavored, and are prepared by simmering water and pouring over the loose tea leaves or bag, and steeping no more than 2-3 minutes. A cup or two first thing in the morning, stimulates digestion, and encourages elimination. If you like red tea, a popular after dinner type, known as Pu-Erh actually discourages phlegm, and eliminates parasites, as well as aiding the digestion of a heavy, rich meal.
I always get mine directly from an Asian market, as they are cheaper and there is such a wide variety. Hope this helps  IP: Logged |

Check this site out
http://www.yogitea.com/ I used to order from them and the product is great. Also, they enclosed a meditation card with a box of tea which was very nice. In fact, thank you for bringing it up I think I need to get back in "yogitea" habit. The good brand that you can buy at the store is Good Earth. Jasmin green tea is my favorite. https://www.goodearthteas.com/productinfo.asp?prod=18&typek=3 IP: Logged |

Kam ~We have similar taste in our teas -- I was going to suggest the Yogi teas but you beat me to it, along with the Good Earth teas 
Try the Kombucha from Yogi, eatbooks -- http://www.c-els.com/sfCatalog.asp?sn=E070720050261146&pchid=69785
-- I've been drinking it for about 8 months and I believe it's helped me be healthier. I used to get viruses often, and I only had one a few months ago.
http://www.kombuchatea.co.uk/what-is-kombucha.asp I also like the Royal Vitality with ginseng -- it gives me a natural boost in the morning. For everyday, I like Stash Teas from Oregon. I like the Chanakara line (orderable thru Stash), especially the Rooibos. I use stevia as a sweetener in all my teas. Zala IP: Logged |
