Chickweed, Cut & Sifted, by the ounce

This mild laxative Chickweed comes from a weed found all over Europe and North America.  15 years ago or more, Dr. Oz let the word out that this herb made into a tea reduces bloating by helping you lose some water weight.  Ever since, everyone wants it to help flush out their bowels and drop a few pounds.  For maximum benefit to this effect, Dr. Oz recommended drinking one cup in the afternoon.  Chickweed tea has a fruity taste and is considered an herbal tea containing potassium and magnesium, something most of us could use extra of.

There are other things Chickweed tea is useful for as well.  This certified organic tea is astringent, it can act as an antihistamine, a diuretic, and a wound healer.  It is useful for coughs, sore throats, roseola, itchy skin, respiratory difficulties and gas.
