- An herbal tea taste
Herbal tea is known to have numerous health benefits, including anti-inflammatory properties, anti-aging properties, tension and anxiety relief, and a lowering of blood pressure. In this context, the tea contains an abundance of anti-inflammatory compounds that prevent the endometrium from producing prostaglandins during menstruation. The release of prostaglandin causes uterine muscle contractions, which are accompanied by pain and cramping. Some women experience nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and headaches during their periods due to the presence of prostaglandins in the circulation.
It is known that herbal teas such as chamomile, dandelion, red raspberry, and fennel inhibit the production of prostaglandins, thereby promoting a smooth menstrual flow. In addition, tepid or hot herbal tea has a soothing effect similar to that of a warm beverage on a woman experiencing her period. The next time you experience discomfort, prepare a cup of herbal tea and feel the difference.
