  • Review on Herbal Teas
    Chandini Ravikumar /J. Pharm. Sci. & Res. Vol. 6(5), 2014, 236-238 Review on Herbal Teas Chandini Ravikumar BDS Student, Savitha Dental College, Chennai Abstract: Herbal tea is essentially an herbal mixture made from leaves, seeds and/ or roots of various plants. As per popular misconception, they are not derived from the usual tea plants, but rather from what are called as ‘tisanes’. There are several kinds of tisanes (herbal teas) that have been used for their medicinal properties. Some of them being consumed for its energizing properties to help induce relaxation, to curb stomach or digestive problems and also strengthen the immune system. Some of the popular herbal teas are Black tea, Green tea, Chamomile tea, Ginger tea, Ginseng tea, Peppermint tea, Cinnamon tea etc. Some of these herbal teas possess extremely strong medicinal benefits such as, Astragalus tea, a Chinese native herb that is used for its anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties; which in many cases helps people living with HIV and AIDS. Demonstrating very few demerits, researchers continue to examine and vouch for the health benefits of drinking herbal teas. Key words:Camellia Sinensis, tisanes, types, medical benefits, ability to cure various ailments, advantages, disadvantages. INTRODUCTION: Herbal tea, according to many, look like tea and is brewed as the same way as tea, but in reality it is not considered a tea at all. This is due to the fact that they do not originate from the Camellia Sinensis bush, the plant from which all teas are made [1]. Herbal teas are actually mixtures of several ingredients, and are more accurately known as‘tisanes.’ Tisanes are made from combinations of dried leaves, seeds, grasses, nuts, barks, fruits, flowers, or other botanical elements that give them their taste and provide Image 1: Green tea the benefits of herbal teas [2].
