"If you are cold, tea will warm you; if you are too heated, it will cool you; If you are depressed, it will cheer you; If you are excited, it will calm you." -William Ewart Gladstone
At McDowells Herbal we love a good cup of tea! After water, tea is the most widely consumed drink in the world. Tea originated in Southwest China during the Shang dynasty, where it was used as a medicinal drink. And tea can still hang powerful medicinal properties - from the high levels vitamin C of rosehip, the digestive powers of peppermint, to the blood detoxifying effect of nettle.
We now stock the full range of Planet Organic teas, along with all our dried herbs. In a way, our bulk dried herbs and our herbal formulations are like teas - ingredients carefully blended and perfectly steeped for their powerful ingredients.
Sit and enjoy a cup today!
