White Mulberry leaf tea is a fragrant herbal infusion that is wonderfully tasty whether served hot or cold. The flavour is outstanding irrespective of whether sugar is added or not (which makes it the perfect detox or diet drink). An additional perk is that this herbal delight provides several important health benefits.
The white mulberry plant is native to northern China and has been used for centuries in Chinese traditional medicine. Considered by some a miracle tea, it is used to treat all manner of afflictions. It is particularly effective in the treatment of mild food poisoning and contains the antibacterial properties necessary to fight off minor internal infections.
Chinese medical experts throughout the ages have discovered that the mulberry leaf is perfectly suited to the treatment of headaches, sore throats and fevers. It is also used to stabilize the liver. This leaf can also be used to put certain forms of bleeding on hold – particularly in cases where the patient is regurgitating blood.
The research that is being done on the white mulberry plant is turning up some great results. There are indications that drinking white mulberry tea could lower blood pressure and aid in the treatment of diabetes. Of course, this plant is best used in conjunction with other supplements designed to curb the effects of diabetes.
These aren’t the only benefits that come from enjoying this wonderful product. Although there is very little proof to support the claims that have come in, many people have reported that their afflictions have lessened or become more manageable when drinking white mulberry leaf tea regularly.
The conditions in question range from asthma and constipation to hair loss and premature graying. These claims may seem vast and a bit strange, but the truth is that many people honestly believe that this tea really helps to rectify these problems. That’s not to say that their experiences aren’t real, just that there is no scientific research that has been concluded as absolute proof. Sufficient numbers of people have experienced similar benefits to indicate that there is a pattern.
This leaf can be consumed in a variety of ways. White mulberry tea is considered the most palatable and probably the most effective tea with regards to digestion and absorption. While extracts and pills are available, studies have shown that the human body is not always able to process such a high concentration of any supplement; which means that a large portion of the supplement goes to waste.
More often than not, a dose of approximately 5 – 10 grams of mulberry leaf is all that is necessary for results to show. Due to this measurement, mulberry leaf tea is the perfect way to monitor daily dosage.
