Tea infuses the precious commodity of water with plants that have transmuted the elements of sunshine and earth into nourishing constituents. It is quickly absorbed into the body, inexpensive, and easy to prepare, and its physiological interaction with the body has been proven time and again in scientific studies. In an age when people are becoming ever more aware of the importance of taking responsibility for their own health, herbal tea is an essential ally in the prevention and treatment of illness and the nourishment and support of the body, mind, and spirit. In quick-study format, this book profiles forty-five common herbs with extraordinary healing potential. Each profile outlines the herb’s major constituents, physiological effects, traditional applications, contraindications, and flavor, as well as its growth habits both in the wild and in the garden. Mars’s years of experience and talent for bringing together the wisdom of disparate cultures shine through in the author’s discussion of guidelines and theories for preparing herbal formulas and maintaining good health.
