Herbal teas have become increasingly popular as “natural remedies” boasting a range of health benefits, from antioxidants to digestive support. While ingredients like chamomile and peppermint are indeed rich in antioxidants that combat oxidative stress, their actual effectiveness can vary greatly between different blends. Scientific support for claims—such as ginger aiding digestion or hibiscus supporting healthy blood pressure—remains mixed, so consumers are advised to be discerning.
Most herbal teas offer a caffeine-free alternative to traditional teas and coffees, making them suitable for those sensitive to caffeine. However, not every herbal tea is entirely caffeine-free, so always check the label if this matters to you.
