Preliminary evidenceHerbs in this remedy
About this remedy
This carefully balanced blend draws from Anatolian folk herbalism, combining six herbs in precise ratios for daily wellness. Chamomile provides a calming base, nettle adds deep mineral nourishment, thyme offers immune and antimicrobial support, horsetail contributes joint-supporting silica, lady's mantle brings hormonal balance, and gundelia adds traditional liver support. The result is a drinkable, sustainable wellness tea.
Preparation
Mix the dry herbs in these parts: 3 parts chamomile, 2 parts nettle, 1 part thyme, 0.5 part horsetail, 1 part lady's mantle, 0.5 part gundelia. Use 1 teaspoon of the blend per cup. Pour hot (not boiling) water and steep 8-10 minutes. Optional: add lemon or honey. For variety, add a pinch of ginger (immunity), lemon balm (relaxation), or fennel (digestion).
Dosage
1-2 cups daily. Cycle your use: 2-3 weeks on, 1 week off. Or drink 3-4 times per week on an ongoing basis. The cycling is important due to the horsetail content.
Cautions
Do not use daily without breaks — horsetail should be cycled to avoid long-term silica accumulation. Not recommended during pregnancy. May lower blood pressure. Those on diuretics or blood pressure medications should consult a practitioner.
