Organic Loose Leaf Herbal Tea

 

LOOSE LEAF

Loose leaf tea consists of larger leaves, which means it retains more of its polyphenols and catechins.  Teabags are usually made from tea “dust,” small particles of low-quality tea that are inexpensive and easily available. Most teabags are packed tight, allowing little room for the tea to expand and release its flavor as it steeps. Loose leaf teas, when properly prepared, have plenty of room to expand and result in a lovely, flavorful cup. Because they’re made of higher quality tea leaves, loose leaf teas typically take a bit longer to brew.

Another great thing about loose leaf tea is that you can control the strength of your tea. If you like your tea strong, you can add more leaves to create a stronger cup of tea.  So to sum up.. whole leaf teas provide you with more flavor, aroma, antioxidants, and pleasure than the tiny leaf bits and stale tea dust in most mass-produced tea bags, and is earth-friendly.

ORGANIC

In addition to averting chemicals in the final products, organic production of spices, herbs, and teas allows consumers to avoid risk of dietary exposure to harmful chemicals and offers nutritional benefits like reduced heavy metals and more antioxidants in final products.

​

Several studies from various countries have tested for and detected pesticide residues in non-organic spice and tea products. Detected pesticides range from organophosphates to pyrethroid insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides. Detected levels range from trace to exceeding maximum allowances. Because most of these chemicals are prohibited in organic production, consumers can reduce their risk of dietary exposure when they consume organic products.But the benefits of organic don’t stop there. Science also shows that organic spices, herbs, and teas can have higher concentrations of beneficial bioactive substances like vitamin C and antioxidants.
