Can I use 15 leaves in a litre off water and drink 3 times a day for 3 months or longer?
Hi Mandy,
Yes you can but its not wise to do that as you will need to take a break every month. If you have 7 leaves per litre and drink it 3 times per day, that is the recommended amount for 30 days and then take 5-10 days break.
Hi
Could you please tell me how many leaves are required to make 1 cup of tea. What are the health benefits if any.
Kind Regards
Hi Genevieve,
Your best option for using it once per day is to make up 1 litre using 7 leaves, bring to the boil, then let it simmer for around 10 minutes or so. You should get at least 4 cups from this. You can either leave it on the stove for that time or put it in the fridge.
In regard to health benefits, Unfortunately, we have been instructed by a government body not to share that information.
Best advice is to do a Google search for that information.
