Mursalski Tea (Mountain), 20g

MURSALSKI TEA – HERB FOR ANY PAIN

There is nothing better than a cup of Mursalski tea in a cold winter day, while the snow is falling outside in big flakes. To hide where it is nice and warm in front of the fireplace, to watch the falling snowflakes and to sip the magic drink bearing the fragrant aroma of late summer -with its swaying in the wind meadows, with its bathed in dew flowers and herbs and buzzing bees; the fragrance which reminds us the new awakening day, the timelessness andtranquility of the mountains. I think that it is a must for every home to have a bunch of this magical herb. Not only in winter but throughout the whole year it can give you tone and strength.

Mursalski tea (Sideritis scardica, Mountain tea) is an herb long used by Rhodopean people, which are famous for their longevity and viability. In addition to its toning effect , it has also strengthening, antianemic, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory action. It reduces blood pressure and thus reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke. It prevents the development of cancer cells and the development of atherosclerosis. It has been proved that it is an antioxidant, i.e., it purifies the body. It contains iron, copper, cobalt, zinc, potassium, magnesium, sodium etc. It contains a great amount of flavonoids, which are the main active agents with antimicrobial and antioxidant effects. It also contains tannins and essential oils. Doctors recommend it for treatment of the respiratory system (coughs, bronchitis ) and for treatment of the urinary system. It is especially effective for healing of the urinary tract and prostatitis, liver and kidney diseases. Recently Mursalski tea is also known as the "Bulgarian Viagra." The tea has a very strong specific taste. When prepared, it has a sweet flavor and light hints of mint.
