What Our Laguna Beach Customers Ask Us About This Tea
Why does this tea work?
Soursop leaf is most consistently used as an evening herb for calm and restful sleep. That is its primary traditional application across multiple cultures, and it is what people reach for it most.
It is also valued for its antioxidant content and traditional use in supporting immune function and healthy inflammation response.
There is some traditional use for blood sugar and blood pressure support as well, though that application is less documented at tea quantities than its sleep and antioxidant uses.
How do I use this tea?
Mild, gently earthy, and slightly sweet.
One of the more approachable single herbs in the collection and easy to drink without sweetener.
Honey or a squeeze of lemon works well if you want it brighter.
Use one to two teaspoons of dried leaf per eight ounces of water at 212 degrees and steep seven to ten minutes.
Can I boost the benefits of this tea?
Soursop + Moringa Leaf
Soursop brings antioxidant-rich plant compounds that support calm, immune function, and protection against everyday oxidative stress, while moringa adds a broad spectrum of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants at a foundational level.
A good daily pairing for immune support and overall vitality without any stimulation.
Who should use extra caution?
If you have Parkinson's disease or a family history of Parkinson's disease, do not use soursop. It contains annonacin, a naturally occurring compound that has been linked to atypical Parkinsonism with long term or high consumption. This is a serious, well-documented concern.
If you take blood pressure medication, avoid soursop or use only with your doctor's guidance as it can lower blood pressure further.
If you take diabetes medication, check with your doctor first as it may affect blood sugar levels and alter how your medication works.
Not recommended during pregnancy.
Do not use in large amounts or for extended continuous periods without medical supervision.
