What is tea detox? This concept is not new. Therapeutic teas have been used to benefit health and wellness for centuries. There are many medicinal options available within the realm of herbal teas. For specific results it's the combination of putting the right teas into your cup. We know that fruit and vegetable juices provide large amounts of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. Teas made from a wide range of botanical substances offer much more and without all the sugar that juices often contain. The purpose of a detoxification program is to eliminate toxins from the body's tissues. A cleanse focuses on cleaning out and purifying the digestive track including the upper and lower intestine. The terms can be a bit confusing and are often used interchangeably. A teatox program that includes formulas or ingredients for both cleansing and detoxification is actually considered to be both. For example, some elements in detox tea eliminate heavy metals, carcinogenic second-hand smoke deposits and residual drugs from the blood and organs, and others cleanse the intestines of worms and flukes.
