As the chill of winter approaches, the changing weather brings more than just cozy layers and brisk air—it also calls for a focus on our overall well-being. The shift from warmer to colder days can weaken our immune defenses, making us more susceptible to colds, flu, and seasonal ailments. Amidst these changes, maintaining good health becomes essential, and one effective way to support our bodies is through the power of herb-infused teas.
The trend for consumers to use natural herbs & spices and their home-made mixtures in their regular cup of tea has always existed in India – but it becomes more prominent during changing weather. The average Indian household usually adds one or more natural ingredients to their tea for their perceived health benefits and added flavour.
Tata Tea Gold Care packs the goodness of five native ingredients (Ginger, Cardamom, Tulsi, Mulethi & Brahmi) in one wholesome cup of tea that not only makes for a perfect cup of flavorful tea but each ingredient also provides specific health benefits.
The native ingredients used in the blend are rooted in Indian tradition and are also known for their specific benefits.
Brahmi (Water Hyssop or Indian Pennywort)
Renowned for its memory-enhancing properties, Brahmi is one of the most commonly used herbs for cognitive health and mental clarity.
Mulethi (Liquorice)
Known for its soothing effects on sore throat, cough, and cold, Mulethi is a time-honored remedy for respiratory discomfort.
Cardamom
A staple in Indian cuisine and one of the world’s most prized spices, cardamom not only adds a burst of flavor but also aids digestion.
Tulsi (Indian Basil)
Tulsi, often called the “Queen of Herbs,” is celebrated for its ability to strengthen the immune system and promote overall wellness.
Ginger
This versatile root is packed with nutrients and is especially beneficial in easing symptoms of the common cold, cough, and digestive issues.
In addition to their benefits, herbal teas also provide comfort during colder months. The ritual of a warm cup of tea can bring relaxation, support hydration, and help us slow down and reconnect with ourselves, which is equally vital for overall well-being. So, as winter sets in, make herb-infused tea a part of your daily routine to stay warm, healthy, and prepared for the season ahead.
