Hazel tea

A tea for anyone who wants to feel forever young. Hazel's good properties are hard even to list — it improves the circulation, tones the veins, prevents capillaries from rupturing, strengthens kidney function, eases morning swelling and lowers blood pressure, reduces cholesterol and the atherosclerosis that comes with it, lessens the likelihood of heart attack, stroke or memory loss, and works against inflammation, bringing about a state in which the body deals with inflammation itself. It gives good results in cases of prostate inflammation and of its benign enlargement (prostate adenoma).

A tea of hazel's fortifying bark and first spring leaves will help you hold on to your inner resources in a fast-moving day, and leave you brighter and more active.
