Suggested Use: Adult women: Drink 1 cup of tea, once a day. Use 1 tablespoon of dried tea per cup (250 ml) of water. Take a few hours before or after taking medications. Preparation instructions inside box as well as below.
Preparation:
Measure, into a pot, enough water for the number of large cups (8oz/250ml) you want to make and add 2 heaping teaspoons per cup. Add 25% more water to compensate for evaporation. Make enough for a few days if you like. When you scoop out the tea, scoop deep down into the bag to make sure the tea is kept well mixed. Example: If you want to prepare 4 cups of tea, measure 5 cups of water and 8 heaping teaspoons of tea. Heat on a stove until boiling, then turn stove off or set to low and allow to simmer for 10 minutes. Stir and allow the tea to cool, then strain into a pitcher. For best results let it soak for a few hours or overnight before straining. Store the pitcher in the refrigerator and drink the tea cold or re-heated. You can put some in a thermos to take along with you to work. The tea has a pleasing aroma. The tea tastes great without sugar or sweeteners. If you prefer a sweeter tasting tea, use a little bit of honey or stevia. Do not prepare the tea by pouring hot water over it, as this will not give you the full benefit.
