Powdered herbs make for a more complete brew. Rene Caisse always ground her herbs before brewing. This is because there is more surface area with powdered herbs for the extracts to seep into the tea. Anything in powdered form mixes easier and more thoroughly. Powdered herbs are fine enough that they can remain in the tea and be consumed along with the tea. Because herbal medicine is not an exact science, we prefer that you consume the herb particles in addition to the tea, as they might contain beneficial compounds. You also may decide to strain the brew and remove the particles, the choice is yours. By consuming the herbs along with the tea, you won't miss out on any of the important organic compounds that are part of whole foods.
Each of the 4oz. packets have brewing instructions, listed ingredients and dosage recommandations on every label. If you still might have questions, please, feel free to contact me. I'm always glad to assist you.
Shipping: I send all packages USPS Priority mail unless otherwise specified. This way is safe, fast and able to be tracked.
