Description

Most of us think of tea as a comfort drink. Who doesn’t love sitting down with your favourite cuppa and watching tv, or something to wind down with before bed.


But what if your tea was doing more than that?


What if it could actually calm your nervous system, support your hormones, ease anxiety, or even improve the quality of your sleep?


In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with Nina Morgan, a women’s health advocate and founder of Nutur Tea to chat all about what’s really hiding inside those supermarket tea bags, how to spot low quality matcha from the real thing, and the specific herbs that can make a difference to stress, gut health, and menopause.


You’ll learn:




  • 0:28 - Why most supermarket teas don’t have any health benefits




  • 2:27 - Why the matcha you’re drinking might not be as healthy as you think it is




  • 5:51 - What to look for in a good quality matcha




  • 7:40 - The difference between coffee and matcha when it comes to sustaining your energy levels




  • 10:53 - How to tell if your teabag is actually safe + the hidden risks of “dusty” herbs and plastic bags




  • 15:28 - Which herbs help with menopause to ease hot flushes and brain fog




  • 19:04 - The herbal tea that she gives to her kids (and they love it!) 




  • 23:21 - What happened when Nina replaced her nightly wine with tea




  • 30:18 - Does the kettle and water temperature matter when making tea?




  • 32:23 - What ethical tea production actually looks like… and why $4 teas are a red flag




  • 34:01 - Plastic in teabags? Why it’s still happening and how to avoid it




… and SO much more.
