What Our Laguna Beach Customers Ask Us About This Tea
Why does this tea work?
Nettle's most consistent traditional use is as a nutritive tonic, a daily source of naturally occurring iron, calcium, magnesium, and vitamins A, C, and K.
That mineral density is why it has long been used to support energy and replenish the body, particularly through menstruation, pregnancy, and nursing.
It has also been used traditionally to ease seasonal allergy discomfort and to support joint comfort, where its anti-inflammatory reputation has drawn modern research interest.
Long valued as a gentle diuretic for kidney and urinary support as well.
How do I use this tea?
Deep green, grassy, and earthy with a savory, almost vegetal quality, more like a leafy green than a floral tea.
Honey rounds it out, and a squeeze of lemon brightens the grassy edge.
One heaped teaspoon per eight ounces of water at 212 degrees, steeped seven to ten minutes.
Steep longer, up to fifteen minutes, for a stronger, more mineral-rich cup.
Can I boost the benefits of this tea?
Nettle Leaf + Red Raspberry Leaf
Nettle delivers deep mineral nourishment, iron, calcium, and magnesium, while red raspberry leaf tones and supports the reproductive system. One replenishes, the other tones.
A time-tested daily pairing for women's wellness and steady mineral support through the cycle and beyond.
Who should use extra caution?
If you take diuretics, nettle can add to their effect, so check with your doctor before drinking it regularly. Because it can lower blood pressure and blood sugar, use with awareness if you take medication for either and monitor closely.
It may also interact with blood thinners due to its vitamin K content.
Not recommended in large therapeutic amounts during pregnancy without guidance, though it is a traditional pregnancy tonic when used under the care of a doctor or midwife.
