Stomach Balancing Medicinal Tea

chamomile, marshmallow root, dandelion leaf, licorice root

Chamomile is helpful in reducing smooth muscle spasms associated with GI inflammation, soothing and calming an upset stomach caused by digestive issues or emotional stress, reducing severity of diarrhea, supporting the body to heal ulcers or torn tissues, aiding in indigestion and may reduce heartburn.

 

Marshmallow root helps soothe and lubricate mucus membranes in the digestive tract. It contains anti-inflammatory properties that assist with issues such as colitis, gastritis and peptic ulcers. Commonly used as an ally for issues such as heartburn, IBS and constipation.

 

Dandelion leaf is loaded with antioxidants, reduces fluid retention, provides potassium, calcium and iron. Dandelion is one of the best liver cleansers; it increases the activity of the liver, the flow of bile into the intestines and increases the activity of the pancreas and the spleen and helps open urinary passages. This highly nutritive leaf is also one of the best blood purifiers and builders available which helps to restore and balance the blood.

 

Licorice root offers a wealth of healing properties. She helps relieve over-acidity in the digestive tract and stomach ulcers, is an anti-inflammatory and helps increase bile flow.

Herbalist's Message

As with any natural or herbal product, the key is consistency and patience. People are used to quick fixes and that approach is just not the case when trying to make the changes necessary for a healthier lifestyle.

 

People who use herbs as symptom-relieving remedies will often be disappointed as most herbs don't target specific biochemical reactions to create rapid changes. Instead, herbs work with the body in extremely complex ways to bring about balance in the body. 

 

It is important to note that herbs will not make up for lack of sleep, dehydration or a diet filled with processed and refined foods.

Plants can be powerful allies, when used responsibly.

Although most herbal preparations are safe and effective, it is important to note that there may be potential side effects (allergies) and individual results may vary. Creating a relationship with their vital energy plays a large role in the symbiotic partnership toward healing and physical well-being.
 

There is no way to know any particular body will react to any substance. When you are taking herbs, you are your own primary care giver and you must be vigilant of your own health.  Consult with an herbalist or primary care provider and do your research, so that you can become an knowledgable and compassionate caretake of your own body.
