About our herbs

“Gamtos galia” (eng. Power of Nature) offers tea mixes of herbs and aromatic or medicinal plants picked and collected in Lithuanian meadows and forests.

The extraordinary feature of our herb is that we do not chop them. We combine our mixes only from the herbs we collect with our own hands. It means that all the herbs are carefully picked, grown, dried and sorted . Once you open a box you can see the separated herbs. You are free to choose how many of each type you wish to add to your tea cup or pot. When you brew your tea you can see how blossoms and leaves open up and start spreading their aroma.

All tea mixes are built in order to have a pleasant aroma and great taste. On top of that we add certain herbs which do not necessarily have a pleasant fragrance but possess good preventive features and can help cure various physical complaints as well as calm down or energise if needed.

In case you feel ill the first thing you need to do is to consult a doctor – our teas are not considered to be drugs for curing one or another disease. None of the herbs should be treated as substitutes for medicine even though you know that some pills are made of similar herbs.

Tea brewing

Once you want to prepare your tea, select some herbs and place them in a cup and pour hot (not boiling) water on top. Do not boil the herbs in order not to lose their active ingredients. Cover a cup and leave it for 5-10 minutes. Then, you can either drink it or filter it first. Still, remember not to throw the herbs away because you can re-use them one more time. If you like your tea to be sweet, choose honey instead of sugar - it will add to the good taste. Remember it is better that your herbal tea is not too hot. Try drinking it slowly and feel how each sip is both delicious and effective.

We do not recommend drinking one type of herbal tea longer than 2 weeks and more often than 2 times a day. That is already considered herbal treatment, so you should consult your doctor first.
