5 Herbal Teas That Are Good For Your Sleep | Herbal Goodness

When you having health issues as a child, your mother may have suggested that you drink a throat coat tea or a herbal tea. And, you know what? Your mother may have been onto something. Fact is, herbal tea and traditional tea have been  used for generations to soothe an upset stomach, support healthy weight, ease stress and improve sleep. 

So, what are the healthy ingredients in herbal tea, chamomile tea and valerian root tea? To begin, the best teas have antioxidants¹ and nutrients such as Vitamin C, magnesium and potassium. For instance, Herbal Goodness' herbal teas naturally have iron, Vitamin A, Vitamin B, Vitamin C, potassium, magnesium and antioxidants. Another good thing about Herbal Goodness' herbal tea is that the teas are made from non-GMO herbs and super fruits. 

Herbal Tea Pregnancy

Herbal Goodness' Guava, Papaya and Graviola fruit products are actually grown on farms that have non-GMO soil. So too are Herbal Goodness' Guayusa, Moringa, Gymnema and Bamboo herb products. A reason for this has to do with Herbal Goodness' founders experience during her pregnancy. 

Dr. Unoma Okorafor, a West African native and Herbal Goodness founder, was pregnant when she learned that Papaya products in American stores, including natural food stores, were very different from natural papaya grown in Africa. 

Not one to give up, Dr. Okorafor searched diligently for natural papaya products. Seeing none, she set out to create a natural papaya product. Those efforts led to the formation of Herbal Goodness. Although Dr. Okorafor started her healthy foods search to ensure that she fed herself and her unborn child the best foods, an unexpected benefit has been discovered.

Don't Cut Back On Sleep

Despite how hectic your schedule might be, don't cut back on sleep. According to Harvard Medical School², chronic sleep deprivation can cause memory loss, weight gain, irritability and immunity issues. It's generally okay if you have a few nights when you toss and turn in bed. But, you don't want to let insomnia become a habit. 

As a tip, to improve sleep, try putting your phone down an hour before you head to bed. Also, avoid caffeine and heavy or spicy food. It sounds simple. But, drinking a cup of chamomile tea, spearmint tea, lemon balm tea or Herbal Goodness' herbal tea can also improve sleep.
