Cumin, Coriander and Fennel Tea is one of Ayurveda's most famous formulas for detoxification and burning up excess water weight. The revitalizing yet mild blend gets right to the point, helping to warm up your circulation and clean your lymphatic system. Its flushing action simultaneously cleanses the urinary tract and reduces water retention.Nicknamed CCF tea, this blend stokes metabolism and the digestive fire, restoring vitality where winter sluggishness abounds. It's mild bitterness revs up the spring detoxification process and purifies the blood. CCF tea restores tone and tightness to swollen spring tissues. It is a soothing formula that reduces agitation and inflammation. It restores a calm clarity and spaciousness to a tense mind.
For best results, place 1 tsp of CCF in a tea ball in your favorite mug. Pour boiling water over the tea and let sit for 3-4 minutes. Drink with every meal for at least two weeks.

MEDICINAL QUALITIES
INCREASES Increases These Qualities (Gunas)
Functional Ayurveda helps you assess imbalances through 20 main states
(gunas).
Aggravating these characteristics weakens your body and causes imbalance.
By knowing which states are habitually imbalanced in your body, you will be able to identify and correct imbalances before you get sick.
Every state has an opposite which balances it (i.e. hot balances cold).
You restore balance by favoring diet and lifestyle choices that increase the opposite state.
| LIGHT
Lightness is identified by reduced weight.

TASTESThe 6 Tastes
Taste is used to sense the most basic properties and effects of food.
Each taste has a specific medicinal effect on your body.
Cravings for food with certain tastes indicate your body is craving specific medicinal results from food.
Taste is experienced on the tongue and represents your body's reaction to foods.
Sweet taste causes physical satisfaction and attraction whereas bitter taste causes discomfort and aversion.
Kapha should use less sweet taste while Vata and Pitta would benefit from using more sweet taste.
One of the first signs of illness is that your taste and appetite for food changes.
The six tastes are sweet, sour, salty, pungent, bitter, and astringent.
Do you crave foods with any of the tastes below?
| PUNGENT
Pungency is characterized by irritation, or sharp, spicy foods that irritate the mouth such as black pepper.

DOSHASThe Three Doshas / Body Types
People tend to get sick, over and over again, due to similar causes and habitual imbalances that are unique to the person.
Your body type summarizes this tendency, showing you the 'type' of conditions and imbalances that frequently challenge your health & wellness.
Using body type, you can also identify remedies likely to improve your strength and resiliency.
Your body type identifies physical and mental characteristics as well as your personal strengths and weaknesses.
The calculation of your body type is based on your medical history.
The 3 functional body types (doshas), are Catabolic (Vata), Metabolic (Pitta), and Anabolic (Kapha). Catabolic individuals tend to break down body mass into energy. Metabolic individuals tend to burn or use energy. Anabolic individuals tend to store energy as body mass. Catabolic people tend to be easily stimulated, hyperactive, underweight and dry. Metabolic people tend to be rosy-cheeked, easily irritated, focused, driven, and easily inflamed. Anabolic people are heavy, stable and grounded, but if they store too much energy, they could gain weight easily and have congestion. |

HAS THE FOLLOWING | EFFECT Sattvic SATTVICSattvic foods promote awareness and a refreshed mind by nourishing the body without taxing digestion. Sattvic foods do not stimulate desire or nervous energy. They create clarity instead of drowsiness or heaviness. |

Can you drink as ice tea or does it have to be hot?

You may brew hot and drink as an iced tea.

It does what it's supposed to do. Tasty.
Very tasty and curbs snacking. I feel very healthy when I drink this tea. It is light and nourishing. It is my go-to when I feel out of balance. It is definitely a diuretic, but in a good way!
I just love the tea!! I received it so quickly in the mail also. Thank you!! It is very warming on these cold nights in Maine!
I love this "tea." I used to have two cups of black tea in the morning, but have since replaced one of those with a cup of this tea. I find myself really looking forward to it. Is there a suggested usage limit (2 weeks; 2 months, etc)? Thank you!
There is no limit, but make sure to occasionally switch it out with another herbal tea just as you would any other herb. Glad you like it!

Love this tea! I don't even like fennel but I don't mind it in the tea! It definitely does it's job of aiding the digestion process!
