5 Types of Tea for Digestion & Immunity

In earlier times, people would simply add leaves, seeds, or flowers to hot water and sip it slowly. In fact, this has been a common practice in many countries. In places like China, Japan, Morocco, and parts of the Middle East, tea has traditionally meant herbal infusions, not milk-based tea. Today, for most of us, chai or tea usually means milk, sugar, and tea powder. Milk-based chai can be comforting, no doubt. But when consumed often, it can burden digestion, dehydrate the body, and leave us feeling heavy and sluggish. Dairy milk is difficult to digest for many people, and refined sugar causes energy spikes followed by crashes, putting extra stress on the gut and metabolism. So here are five types of teas that I personally enjoy. They are hydrating in nature and offer many benefits for overall health, simply because their main component is water. This also makes them caffeine-free and gentle on the gut. You can sip them throughout the day without disturbing your sleep or appetite ✨ Each herb, spice, or flower brings its own flavour and benefits when steeped in hot water 🍵 So feel free to experiment and see what works best for your body. 📖 Learn more satvic recipes on the Satvic App (available on both Google Play Store and App Store).
