I have a loose leaf organic herbal tea called "Happiness Tea." It is DELICIOUS! But better than that, everything in it is natural and the health benefits are fantastic!
Here is a rundown of the herbs contained in it:
Summary of the Herbs used in Cold Creek Naturals “Happiness Tea:”
St. John’s Wort: St. John’s Wort has been used medicinally since the times of the ancient Greeks. In these modern times, it is most commonly used for mild or moderate depression symptoms, including S.A.D. (Seasonal Affective Disorder). It should not be used to treat major depression. Researchers are not sure how it works, but many clinical studies agree that it does.
***NOTE: You should not use St. John’s Wort if you are taking any type of mood moderating drug, including anti-depressants, without speaking to your doctor first.
St. John’s Wort also has antibacterial, antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties. It is great for healing skin wounds. In addition, St. John’s Wort helps with pain, including some types of neuralgia.
Oat Straw: Oat Straw is an extremely nutritious herb. It is filled with minerals one of which is calcium. It is also a very mild relaxant, and is thought to help with mild anxiety.
