Eczema & Psoriosis Loose Leaf Tea
Think of this as a cleansing drink for the largest organ of your body, your skin. (Did you know that often times your skin will react to what you put inside your body?) This is why as an additional benefit, it may also help to lessen your sugar intake while on a skin detoxifying cycle as well.
Ingredients Simplified:
Moringa • With its high concentration of vitamin C and bioflavonoids, moringa tea may be a highly nourishing drink for the skin. It is an anti-aging drink which can be used to boost collagen production, reduce free radicals, diminish the formation of fine lines, and increase the moisture and the youthfulness of the skin.
Mullein • May help to protect mucous membranes, thereby preventing them from triggering allergic reactions.
Sarsaparilla • The researchers found steroidal saponins, previously associated with skin-health promotion. The researchers further demonstrated that these saponins cure inflammation and damaged skin in atopic dermatitis.
Astragalus • May offfer many important benefits to both the skin and body, including anti-aging, eczema relief, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Stinging Nettle • Stinging Nettle leaf reduces sebum and may give relief to general redness, rosacea and dermatitis.
Cacao Husk • Research has shown that polyphenols in Theobroma cacao extract may reduce atopic dermatitis-like symptoms.
Milky Oats • Great for managing stress, it may be used as a tonic and nourishment for the nervous system. Research shows that skin inflammation and outbreaks can be directly linked to an over-reaction from the immune system/nervous system.
Green Tea • In a month-long study in Japan, people with eczema who drank three cups of green tea felt relief from their itching in just one week. Although its health effects are not yet fully understood, green tea may have these potential benefits.
