Pine Needle Tea
By now, most of us know that we need plenty of vitamin C in our diets if we want to boost our immune systems and fight off colds and other illnesses. Oranges and other citrus fruits may be the best-known sources of vitamin C, but pine needle tea is also packed with this crucial vitamin.
Pine needle tea is rich in other antioxidants too, which help to protect our cells against damage from oxidative stress. As an expectorant, pine needle tea can also support you if you do get ill, helping to clear mucous from your lungs and chest.
As well as vitamin C, pine needle tea contains high levels of vitamin A. This vitamin supports the immune system and protects your vision and eye health. Plus, vitamin A keeps your skin and hair healthy and glowing.
Rosehip Tea
The other ingredient in this flagship tea is rosehip – another fantastic source of vitamin C to keep your immune system functioning as it should. Like pine needles, rosehips are packed with antioxidants to protect against oxidative stress and inflammation.
Rosehip is an excellent ally during the winter months, but it also has uses during the rest of the year. Its high levels of antioxidants make it a popular herbal remedy for joint pain, including rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.
Rosehip is also a good source of vitamins A and E, which both play a role in keeping your immune system functioning effectively. Plus, rosehip is often found as an ingredient in skincare because it contains astaxanthin – a compound that slows the breakdown of collagen and thus protects against the signs of ageing.
