Cove Spa's Mixed Spice Tea



Cove Spa understands that finding the balance in life can be a constant challenge and our bodies are forever combatting the effects of seasonal weather changes, fluctuating hormones, nutritional deficiencies and general stress to name a few.   It is this constant balancing act that calls for the need to ensure we stay grounded on a daily basis.  One of the best grounding rituals ever discovered comes from an age old tradition....The Art of Herbal Tea.

Herbal Tea is an ancient tradition that dates back to the Ayurveda texts of ancient India.  These texts are more than 6000 years old and document the use of herbs for curing disease and maintaining health.

Whilst Western Medicine is a godsend for illness and disease and should not be replaced without medical advice, it is always pleasant to indulge in the natural world using indigenous ingredients to let our bodies heal and repair.  For these reasons Cove Spa have carefully chosen specific ingredients to create their own Mixed Spice Tea to provide you with a powerful range of therapeutic benefits.

Cinnamon
This delicious spice not only offers potent antioxidants and antimicrobial activity, but may also provide benefits for diabetics by reducing blood glucose levels. Cinnamon also helps to stop the growth of fungi such as Candida, protects against heart disease, and provides iron, calcium and manganese. Research suggests that the scent of cinnamon may boost brain function as well.

Ginger
This super-spice contains a broad array of beneficial compounds, including beta-carotene, capsaicin, curcumin, and salicylate. In addition to being a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, there are indications that ginger can reduce nausea and other gastrointestinal symptoms. Ginger also has anti-inflammatory properties, making it beneficial for arthritis sufferers.

Cardamon
Cardamon has antioxidant, antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties.

Cloves
Cloves provide antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits. They are also a source of Omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin C, calcium, and magnesium.

Note: Not to be taken when pregnant.
