Switch To These Herbal Teas To Clarify The Skin & Cleanse Your Body Inside-Out

I became a huge believer in the skin-clearing powers of nettle tea when I read that Calgary Avasino {who used to be British Vogue’s Beauty & Wellness Director} drank this first thing in the morning to detox. I’ve been drinking nettle tea for the last eight or so years and I find that my skin is definitely healthier when I drink it. The reason is that nettle tea helps improve liver function. Your liver produces bile, blood and also a large amount of lymph {to clean the internal systems}. Sluggish liver function leads to hives, eczema and psoriasis, so drinking nettle tea will help your skin be more resistant to allergies.

Let me warn you right in the beginning – this tea is VERY bitter. Like any health addict I like to add two tea bags to a massive cup of water and even I could not take more than two sips of this tea. But when I reduced it to just one tea bag per cup, the tea is much more palatable. One must keep in mind that anything bitter in taste is detoxifying for the body – be it neem, karela or this detoxifying tea. The main ingredient in this tea is katuki {picrhiza kurroa}, a wonderful rhizome just like turmeric, characterised by its bitter taste. The great thing about katuki is that it can detoxify the liver of any excesses like alcohol soon you’ve had it {like the morning after an all nighter}. And it also works to heal long standing liver conditions and damage. I just love this herb and love this tea despite the bitter taste.
