7 Incredibly Healthy Herbal Teas ...

Herbal Teas have been used for hundreds and even thousands of years as natural cures for many diseases and conditions and although our ancestors didn’t really know why these plants help so much, they sure knew how to use them in many ways, some of which still completely unknown to the modern man. Modern medicine has replaced herbs nowadays, making us forget about all those benefits of herbal teas, nature and things that are best when not synthesized into a pill. Well, it’s time to rediscover good old ways to stay healthy and what better way there is to do such thing than with a big cup of one of these amazing herbal teas listed below:

1 Chamomile

Feeling a bit jumpy? Well, have a cup of chamomile tea! This tasty tea will help you calm down and if you think that’s the only thing it can do, you’re up for a big surprise. You see, apart from being a natural, completely safe antidepressant, chamomile tea can be used to deal with sleeping problems and help you finally have peaceful nights. But chamomile is a powerful, 100% natural anti-inflammatory medicine as well so you can drink it, inhale its vapors or soak a cotton ball or a clean cloth in it and apply on the sore spot. It also helps with menstrual cramps, girls, and it sure is much healthier than all those painkillers we often resort to.
