Teeccino Herbal Dandelion Caramel Nut x 25 Tea Bags
Teeccino Herbal Dandelion Caramel Nut x 25 Tea Bags
Teeccino is roasted and ground to brew and taste just like coffee. Teeccino is the healthy alternative to coffee, its nutritious health benefits and natural energy boos
Teeccino’s Dandelion Caramel Nut is so much more than simple dandelion tea. It does have its share of dark-roasted dandelion root, whose bitter taste stimulates both digestion and detoxification; but it also has French chicory, another roasted root with such intense flavour that it’s sometimes used in place of coffee; and carob – slightly sweet, somewhat chocolatey, and still 100% caffeine-free. And then there’s more – dates and figs for a creamy sweetness, real roasted almonds, and essence of pecan and hazelnut to truly earn the Caramel Nut name. There’s no acidity to interfere with your digestion, and the inulin prebiotic soluble fibre from the roots actually helps improve it by feeding the good microbes that live in your gut and keep you regular. And while nourishing those friendly bacteria goes a long way toward good health, there are plenty of nutrients for you, too, including high levels of antioxidants and the heart-healthy mineral potassium.
Ingredients:

Scientific benefits of tea
-
Antioxidants
Tea contains antioxidants, such as polyphenols, that help protect your cells from damage caused by free radicals. This can contribute to overall health and potentially reduce the risk of chronic diseases.
-
Relaxation
Many teas, particularly those with L-theanine (like green tea), promote relaxation and reduce stress. This amino acid can enhance mood and improve focus by increasing alpha brain waves.
-
Caffeine Content
Most teas have lower caffeine levels compared to coffee, providing a gentle boost in alertness and energy. This makes tea a good choice for a milder, more sustained energy lift.
-
Hydration
Despite its caffeine content, tea can contribute to your daily fluid intake and help keep you hydrated. The diuretic effect of caffeine is generally not strong enough to counteract the hydration benefits.
-
Digestive Support
Various teas, such as ginger or peppermint, can aid in digestion and soothe digestive discomfort. They may help stimulate digestive enzymes and provide relief from nausea or bloating.
-
Heart Health
Regular consumption of tea, particularly types like black and green tea, has been linked to benefits for cardiovascular health. It may help lower LDL cholesterol levels and support healthy blood pressure.

How many times a day can I drink tea?
Generally, drinking 3 to 4 cups of tea per day is considered safe and beneficial for most people. However, individual tolerance to caffeine and other compounds can vary.
Can drinking tea cause side effects?
While tea is usually safe, excessive consumption can lead to side effects such as insomnia, jitteriness, or digestive issues due to caffeine. Herbal teas may cause allergic reactions or interact with medications, so moderation is key.
Is it safe to drink tea while pregnant?
Moderate tea consumption is generally safe during pregnancy. However, it's best to limit caffeine intake and consult a healthcare provider regarding specific types of tea, especially herbal varieties.

Yes, tea can stain teeth over time due to its tannin content. Regular brushing and dental cleanings can help minimize staining.
Can tea interfere with iron absorption?
Yes, tea contains compounds that can inhibit the absorption of non-heme iron from plant-based foods. Drinking tea between meals rather than with meals can help mitigate this effect.
Are there any health benefits to drinking herbal teas?
