Our dental hygienists Carol and Telma recently took a great seminar on body inflammation. They were impressed with all the benefits of hibiscus tea. So we did our research and this is what we found.
Let’s dive deep into the roots of the hibiscus plant. This plant has beautiful flowers and currently blooms in tropical and subtropical climates. Various parts of the plants are used for food and medicine. When it comes to making tea, the part of the plant responsible is known as the calyx. Hibiscus tea is considered herbal tea because it is made from a variety of plants, herbs and spices.
Now let’s consider the benefits of hibiscus tea:
Anyone drinking herbal teas regularly should let their doctor know as some herbs do not always mix well with medications. For anyone who has diabetes or high blood pressure you should always monitor your sugar levels when consuming hibiscus tea, as this type of tea is known for decreasing blood sugar and blood pressure level.
