Blender’s Notes Tea~Tox Detox:
Steep Me Self Help combinations are a fantastic way to get health benefits outside of the standard tea leaf. This combination of herbs was built to help the body manage the normal detoxification function focusing on your liver and kidneys. What is a healthy detox? Most of us are exposed to a plethora of toxins, heavy metals, and chemicals daily, found in everything from the air we breathe to the food on our plates. The constant presence of chemicals, pollutants, heavy metals, and pathogens in our environment can make us sick and unhealthy. While our bodies can manage a certain amount of toxin exposure — for example, they often do an excellent job of preventing us from becoming ill by getting rid of microbes and waste we do not need — elevated levels of exposure over time can lead to many side effects. Fortunately, our bodies are equipped with a natural detox system that can help remove these dangerous compounds, and switching up your diet and lifestyle is the best way to maximize your body’s toxin-removing potential. If you have been feeling sluggish, moody, bloated, or more run down than usual lately, you can benefit from a detox. Detoxing your body involves eating nutritious foods, consuming healthy drinks, avoiding irritants and pollutants, and supplementing to support your digestive, immune, and nervous systems. The definition of a detox, or a “cleanse, is “a variety of ‘detoxification’ diets, regimens, and therapies — sometimes called ‘detoxes’ or ‘cleanses’ — have been suggested as ways to remove toxins from your body, lose weight or promote health.” Indeed, when trying to figure out how to lose weight fast, a detox can be a great first step. A detox or cleanse can vary in time length, but it can range from a single day to several weeks. A longer detox than that time is not recommended. The goal of a detox is to remove unhealthy foreign substances, as well as harmful bacteria, yeasts, and viruses, from your body to help you feel and operate better. How do you know if you need a detox? Every person reacts differently to toxin exposure, plus there are several types of toxins, such as metals and mold, each having unique effects on the body. Some common signs that you may require detoxification can include Unexplained fatigue, Sluggishness, weakness, and lethargy, Brain fog and trouble concentrating, Mood swings, anxiety, or depression symptoms, Bloating and indigestion, Aches and pains, which may be caused by inflammation, Getting sick more often, Skin breakouts, redness and sensitivity. A “detox diet” may be considered an intense cleansing diet that consists of drinking specific concoctions for many days or weeks to clear out toxins and achieve weight loss.

Licorice Root was included because it can help reduce acidity in the stomach and inflammation throughout the digestive system, which aids in the natural detoxification process.
