15 Herbal Teas for Health and Every Ailment
Infographic from Hello Natural

Undoubtedly, you've heard about the many great health benefits of drinking green tea.

Green tea is even touted for weight loss. Although everyone has a different experience, my own experiment with green tea resulted in a small amount of weight loss - without any other changes in my diet or exercise and without any other extra effort. I simply replaced the morning coffee with a cup of green tea and drank 2-3 more cups of green tea throughout the day.

In my view, green tea is not the magic bullet for losing weight, but it really seems to help.

But green tea is not the only tea with promising (and, according to some sources, proven) health and healing benefits.

Spices:  Metabolism Boosters

Spices not only add amazing flavor and color to food dishes, studies show that various spices may also provide equally amazing weight loss and other healing and health promoting benefits.

For example, in a study conducted by researchers at England's Oxford Polytechnic Institute found that just one teaspoon of yellow mustard seeds boosts metabolism by 25% for several hours, which translates into burning more calories and weight loss.

Spices (and dried herbs) are rich in various antioxidants, phytochemicals and other micronutrients that are linked to an array of health benefits, including neutralizing and removing toxins, reducing inflammation, increasing energy levels, and possibly even turning off fat genes  - according to the latest and ongoing research in the emerging field of nutrigenomics and nutrigenetics.

Spices also satisfy taste buds and can replace or dramatically lower the use and intake of salt and toxic sugar, thereby reducing the number of calories consumed from sugar and bloating.
