Samad Gardens Initiative Digestive Blend Tea is formulated for digestive support and relief from bloating while assisting in digesting rich foods.

 

Its combination of bitter herbs (dandelion and mugwort) and gentle, nourishing herbs (Korean mint, peppermint, mullein) makes for a well-rounded tea with delicious flavor and big digestive benefits.

 

Dandelion leaf and mugwort are bitter herbs that support healthy bile and liver function, which helps with healthy digestion.

 

Korean Mint imparts a sweet flavor and has a soothing and nourishing effect on the mucous membrane of the gut. It helps to balance the bitter herbs in this tea.

 

Mullein soothes and nourishes mucous membranes in the digestive system as well as the respiratory system.

 

Peppermint imparts a cooling effect on the digestive system.
