11 Sep Restorative Herbal Broth
Inflame Herbal Tea is one of our favorite blends as we approach autumn and is the base for our delicious and healing Restorative Herbal Broth. This tisane is full of richly savory and sweet culinary herbs such as Ginger Root, Turmeric, Rosemary, and Basil Leaves. It is blended with herbs that are high in anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties that are similar to ibuprofen and aspirin. Inflame Herbal Tea is rich in antioxidants which fight inflammation in the body, help to resist disease, and support a healthy immune system. Along with nourishing and nutrient dense veggies, this Restorative Herbal Broth will both soothe inflammation and is deliciously comforting.
