DeTox uses detoxifying herbs known traditionally as "blood cleansers." Both Organic Burdock (Arctium lappa) and Organic Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) work together in this tea to facilitate the elimination of toxins. As pollutants find their way from air, food and water into the tissues of our bodies, they tend to take a heavy toll and can interfere with the normal functions of the organ systems. As a result, we are often left feeling swollen, tired, heavy or even "backed up," and as though we could use some rebalancing. DeTox is a gentle way of combating this condition as it helps the body to clean itself out by aiding the two primary filtering mechanisms, the liver and the kidneys. We have included Jamaican Sarsaparilla in this formula, which is known for both its delicious taste and its purifying properties. Organic Juniper Berry supports kidney function, while the most famous Ayurvedic cleansing blend, called "trikatu" (Organic Ginger, Organic Black Pepper and Long Pepper), is a mild warming formula, suitable for everyone. Because it has no harsh laxatives or increased urinations, DeTox is mild enough to be used every day for up to 30 days.
