  Have you ever bought tea by its name or aroma and then been disappointed in its taste?  Do you dislike herb teas because they taste bland?  Then let me introduce you to my favorite green teas that are really delicious superior herbal beverages, with concentrated antioxidants. 1 – Calli Original This ‘super tea’ is my choice to drink in the morning because it supports my body in cleansing itself of any toxic chemicals, metals, free radicals, and uric acids that have accumulated.  I think of it as my ‘insurance policy’ because I cannot always afford organic foods and meats. Sometimes I prepare it as one tea bag in 4 cups of pure water to sip at room temperature throughout the morning.  Other times when I feel my body is ‘sluggish’, I will prepare it in 8 oz. of pure hot water for stronger cleansing.  Because of its ‘magnetic’ drawing properties, I only prepare and drink it from glass containers. The secret to it’s superiority is the herbal extracts (Per...

    Tea in general has been linked with health and well-being from its beginning. It is prized for its ability to banish fatigue, stimulate the mental powers, and raise the energy level. The book, All the Tea in China , says “…tea brings into harmony two seemingly contradictory elements: alertness and relaxation. An offer of a cup of tea is therefore like an invitation to relax and enjoy the here and now for what it is.”      Serving tea to guests in Chinese homes “is a symbol of togetherness, a sharing of something enjoyable and a way of showing respect to visitors.”   Thus, it is even linked to the health of emotions and relationships.        The first international symposium on tea and health, held in New York in March 1991, concluded that “tea could become a popular and potent weapon in the war against chronic diseases. Why?      Tea contains “polyphenols”. These are the antioxidants that repair cells and are sai...

    Did you know that Tea is the second most consumed beverage in the world after water? What mental images come to your mind when you think of tea?  I envision beautifully dressed Victorian ladies in a luxurious tearoom casually sharing the latest fashion news.  In movies, you may have seen a geisha serving guests sitting cross legged on plump pillows inside a modest Chinese home. Then there is the image in history books of pounds of tea being thrown off British sailing ships during the American Revolution. Here are some fun facts about Tea:      Scholars believe that tea originated in southwest China during the Shang dynasty as a medicinal drink.    It became widely popular during the Tang dynasty, when it was produced as tea bricks and often used as currency. That made it a target for pirates; t he most famous of which was Black Bart, who is said to have preferred Tea to Rum .      Drinking tea became popular in B...

  How to naturally remove Acid and create an Alkaline Environment in the body:   The key is to eat a whole food plant-based diet, not a processed vegan version. Many processed foods can be vegan, but won’t support your health as well as eating simple whole foods and using them to create tasty meals.    Giving your body whole food sources of nutrients - like calcium, fiber, B vitamins, magnesium, protein, Vitamin D, essential fatty acids, and potassium - will keep your cells functioning exactly as they were designed.    Our cells recognize whole foods as sources of energy. Man-made foods require your body to use its energy to decipher what it's supposed to do with them, use what it can, and then try to detoxify the rest. A diet heavy in animal-based and processed foods makes your body work harder internally, which makes you tired after eating that type of meal.   Here are some top recommendations of whole foods that will assist your body...

Does your Body need to be Alkaline? Recently, this was a topic of discussion during a Facebook Live I was watching.  It inspired me to do some research on this subject, which I thought I'd share with my friends:   Proponents of an alkaline diet claim that the diseases of modern civilization, including cancer and osteoporosis, result from eating a diet with too high an acid load. Acidic foods are meats, poultry, dairy, fish, eggs, grains and alcohol. If you eat too much of these foods, according to some claims, your blood and bodily fluids become more acidic too. If you consume alkaline foods, including fresh produce and nuts, your blood becomes more alkaline, which in turn, prevents major health risks — or so say the proponents of the diet.   But a steady pH level is not normal for your entire body. Your blood level hovers around 7.4, but other pH levels in your body vary greatly. The Journal of Environmental and Public Health article notes that the stom...
