Chamomile Tea
Cooler days and even cooler nights, a great time to have a hot cup of tea to help us stay warm. So here is the tea that can do just that and more. Enjoy this tea with your dessert or by it's self. I for one just love a nice hot cup of tea after a delicious meal.
Chamomile Tea
Chamomile tea is well known for its calming effects. But it can also help diabetics.
Studies show that chamomile can also suppress enzymes that are linked to an increased risk of complications commonly associated with diabetes, such as vision, kidney and nerve damage.So adding a cup or two of chamomile tea to your daily routine isn't a bad idea - whether you have diabetes or not. Try drinking it with or right after meals, as chamomile has also been shown to aid in digestion and prevent heartburn and flatulence.
This tasty drink also boasts many other health benefits: It eases menstrual cramps, improves anxiety and sleep and treats the common cold. New research suggests that chamomile tea may also help people with diabetes.
