Herb teas and their effects
Herb teas are good, especially when used for long periods of time. Certain beneficial herbs may be too strong, but not in the form of teas. Mild teas may be used daily as tonics and for general well-being.
If there are several herbs listed for a certain disorder, alternate the herbs to obtain the most benefits from each. To prepare herb teas, use approximately one to three teaspoons of herbs per cup of boiling water. Boil water in a kettle as you would for ordinary tea, but do not use an aluminum kettle. Pour the water into a mug or pot; leave the herbs to steep for at least five minutes, but don't leave them for longer than ten minutes or the tea may have a bitter taste. If you prefer a stronger tea, increase the amount of herbs used rather than steeping the tea for a longer period. Also, do not preserve herbs in clear glass jars; use amber colored jars. The herbs' potency may be destroyed by light.
