Tea recipes

One of my favorite concoctions is green tea (just one tea bag will suffice for a whole pot of tea) dried tangerine peel, fresh ginger, and a dab of honey. In traditional chinese medicine dried tangerine peel is called chen pi, it is good for the circulation of qi, stopping rebellious qi (vomiting), and moisturizing the body. It is a mild herb safe for pregnancy, but if you have a dry cough with no sputum or bloody sputum you should avoid it. The ginger also helps with digestion, and overall the combo is mild and bright. A wonderful tea to share with a friend.

Note from admin - gotta cop the style of all supplements and vitamins here - pregnant and nursing mothers should speak with their doctor about any planned changes in their diet beforehand.
