$12.95

While seemingly unassuming, the humble Stinging Nettle, or Urtica dioica, harbors a wealth of health benefits that resonate with the wisdom of ages.

Stinging Nettle’s nutritional profile is a veritable feast of vitality. Enriched with iron, calcium, and a host of essential vitamins, it beckons to those searching for a natural fortifier. In the realm of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Western Herbalism, and Ayurveda, it earns its laurels as a potent blood purifier and circulatory enhancer. With each sip of nettle tea, you nourish your body, promoting a healthy flow of life force through your veins.

In emergency scenarios, Stinging Nettle’s innate qualities rise to the occasion. Its anti-inflammatory properties offer a soothing balm to ease acute allergic reactions, while its diuretic nature aids in flushing out toxins, mitigating the effects of urinary tract infections, and reducing the risk of kidney stones.

Nettle’s affinity for the respiratory system, demonstrated through its ability to alleviate hay fever and asthma symptoms, mirrors the Gnostic concept of pneuma, the vital breath or spirit.

    This tea has a deliciously mild flavor and the convenient packaging was generously filled. I have had this herb on my mind for awhile now and thankfully the metacenter carries it. I typically steep a cup in the morning and after i am feeling energized so I know this tea packs a nutritious punch.
