Throat Soothing Tea 罗汉果润喉茶

Luo Han Guo is commonly used in TCM to clear excess body heat and moisten the throat and lungs. Our Throat Soothing Tea combines the Yin-nourishing properties of Luo Han Guo with the anti-inflammatory properties of honeysuckle and chrysanthemum to detoxify the body, and soothe cough and sore throat symptoms. The combination of red dates and wolfberry also helps replenish Qi and blood in the body, to strengthen the immune system. 

Benefits:
● Clears heat and expels phlegm
● Relieves cough due to phlegm-heat e.g. violent cough with thick, sticky yellow phlegm that is difficult to expectorate
● Relieves cough with signs of heat due to lung Yin deficiency (e.g. dry and/or transient continuous coughing; phlegm that is little and difficult to expectorate; dry itchy throat; cough with no phlegm or little sticky phlegm; blood-streaked sputum)
● Reduces throat swelling, pain, and hoarseness
● Reduces inflammation
● Detoxifies the body
● Quenches thirst

In TCM, 'heatiness' suggests an excess of Yang energy or deficiency of Yin. Apart from the hot weather, poor diet and lifestyle can also cause 'heatiness' to manifest in the body. For instance, frequently staying up late, overworking without adequate rest, consuming excessive 'heaty' foods, etc.

Examples of 'heaty' foods:
● Deep-fried, greasy or spicy foods
● Chicken, beef, or lamb meats
● Fruits such as durian, mango, longan, or lychee
● Alcohol, coffee, red tea, or chocolate beverages

Some signs of 'heatiness' or Yin deficiency include:
● Warm, feverish palms and soles
● Sore throat, fever, or ulcers in the mouth
● Hard and dry stools or constipation
● Dark or yellow urine
● Dry or bloodshot eyes
● Skin issues such as acne, eczema, and hives
● Feelings of restlessness, irritability, vexation, agitation, or anxiety
● Dream-disturbed sleep or insomnia
● Dry cough or cough with thick yellow phlegm
