Our teas are better than organic. Here’s why:
These teas are made from herbs and plants that grow in the wild in their natural environment, and are not usually “farmed.” Nature is the best farmer. And if cultivated plants are used, we work closely with the farmer. We make sure that the herbal ingredients are grown in their natural environment in the right soil, the right climate, and under the right conditions for maximum nutrition. The soil is tested before planting to ensure there is no chemical contamination. The plants are tested when being harvested and are again tested when they reach the plant to ensure no contamination of any sort happened during shipment. Every container of raw herbs are also tested for heavy metal content and any container of raw herbs that do not meet our high standard of non-contamination is rejected. (Organic farming does not guarantee that your products will have little or no heavy metals.)
Then the plants are cleaned by hand in whatever country they are harvested and they are then sent to the US. Because these plants are guaranteed to be free of any contaminants they are not fumigated or irradiated when they arrive in the US.
Then the beneficial nutrients from the herbal ingredients are concentrated and properly processed for maximum effectiveness. For example, a low heat level is maintained to ensure valuable enzymes are not destroyed.
Also, it’s a well documented fact that produce, organic or not, does not have the nutritional content it had 50 years ago. For instance, North America’s soil deletion is 85% over the last 100 years, according to the 1992 Earth Summit Report. How scary is that? That’s why our tea is concentrated. For every cup of tea you drink, you are getting the nutritional equivalent and level of antioxidants of about 7 cups.
Our teas are the cleanest you will find on the market, the only way they could be cleaner would be if you personally grew them in your own yard!
