What it is
Tribe Organic Hayfever Herbal Tea is a caffeine free, loose leaf blend of certified organic herbs, including nettle, elderflower, eyebright, chamomile, plantain, ginger and ginkgo, with pineapple. It is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
How it helps
Each herb in this blend has been chosen for its traditional role in supporting the body during the hay fever season:
- Nettle – has an immune modulating effect and contains quercetin, a natural antihistamine, especially when combined with bromelain, an enzyme found in pineapple.
- Elderflower and eyebright – elderflower is a restorative anti catarrhal herb and, along with the drying properties of eyebright, helps to reduce the build up of mucus and soothe itchy eyes.
- Chamomile – has antimicrobial properties and has been shown to help stop cells from releasing histamine.
- Plantain – plantain leaves cool the system, act as a demulcent and tone the mucous membranes of the nasal passages, helping them become less sensitive to allergens.
- Ginkgo and ginger – traditional herbs that have been used for centuries to help support the body during the hay fever season and a healthy inflammatory response. They contain antioxidants that support the immune system.
- Peppermint and perilla – carminative, antispasmodic, antiemetic and hepatic herbs that act as a tonic.
