BLOOD PURIFYING
HERBAL TEA
Lori Herron, R.N.

The following recipe comes from the Vegetarian Times, May 1990 issue, and looks fairly reasonable from an herbalist's point of view, (though I might add a bit of nutmeg and cinnamon to it for my own tastes).

TRY THIS RECIPE
1 part burdock root 1 part chicory root (may be roasted for a coffee-like taste) 1 part dandelion root 1 part sarsaparilla root 1/2 part yellow dock root 1/2 part licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) to sweeten [optional]

Combine herbs in a jar. To make tea, use 1 teaspoon herbs per 1 cup of water [1 teabags worth basically]. Place herbs and water in a saucepan. bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat and let simmer for about 10 minutes. Strain before serving. Start by drinking 1 cup of tea daily. You may increase to 2 or 3 cups if you wish. For best results continue drinking daily for at least 2 weeks.

This online herbal is intended as an introduction to how medicinal herb plants are used as herbal remedies. It is intended for educational purposes only. I am not a medical professional and I cannot prescribe what herbs are right for you. I cannot answer medical questions, so please do not ask me (or any other complete stranger for that matter) to prescribe herbal remedies, cures, treatments or to guess what is wrong with you.

If you use herbs, do so responsibly. Consult your doctor about your health conditions and use of herbal remedies. Herbs may be harmful if taken for the wrong conditions, used in excessive amounts, combined with prescription drugs or alcohol, or used by persons who don't know what they are doing. Just because an herbal remedy is natural, does not mean it is safe! There are herbs that are poisonous such as Poison Hemlock, Jimson weed, and many more.

I will be happy to help you ID wild plants that you find, or help you locate herbs, plants or herb seeds and especially herb pictures.
