chamomile Anxiety Soothing & Digestion Boosting The plant's physician. In olden days, chamomile was known as the plant's physician because people thought that by placing chamomile next to a sickly plant, the plant would recover. Chamomile rightly gets the nickname because it has been used for thousands of years to treat everything from loss of appetite to irregular periods to bronchitis. Today we regard chamomile for its abilities to soothe anxiety and tension and to help us get into a deep sleep. We love chamomile, so you'll find it in many of our blends, from caffeinated refreshers to spa-like bedtime brews.

OOLONG TEA antioxidant rich ∙ boosts metabolism ∙ promotes digestion Did you know that the different types of tea (white, green, oolong, black, pu erh) come from the same plant called Camellia sinensis? The various types of tea are differentiated by when they are harvested and how they are processed, meaning how they are wilted, shaped and dried.

Health Benefits of Oolong Tea: Oolong (like all Camellia sinensis teas) may boosts metabolism and energy while...
