eastern medicine is degenerate but what herbal teas do you guys drink

I think the title is too niche a reference but regardless, it's that time of year again at last so recommend teas that I can pretend have health benefits but are really just dirt water.

I have a cup of ginger turmeric in the morning and two cups of chamomile before sleep and I think the morning could be moved to early evening and so I specifically want something herbal for first thing in the morning but I'm open to others :star:

The pumpkin spice finally ran out and it would be weird to reup on that in December.

NOTHING CAFFEINATED

Tea
  • Invented by chinks or Neanderthals or something

  • People choke it down because granola hippies told them to

  • Associated with East Asia, a land of pod-dwelling bugmen

  • Requires setup and your own paraphernalia

Soda
  • Invented by chemists and civil war veterans

  • People drink it because it tastes good

  • Associated with America, the greatest nation on Earth

  • Ready to go and comes with its own drinking container

I have a pancake sized puck of pu-erh from one of the Yiwu mountains of the Six Great Tea Mountains.

I'm saving it for a special occassion.

Like Xi Jinping dying. Or the Three Gorges Dam collapsing. Or Chinese Civil War. Or China becoming bankrupt. Or Shanghai falling into the giant sinkhole that is Shanghai.

Xi Jinping dies during his visit to Shanghai as the city collapses into a sinkhole, this sparks a Chinese civil war during which the Three Gorges Dam is destroyed by terrorists. Hundreds of millions are killed within hours due to catastrophic flooding, with a full 500 million dying by the end of the month. The Chinese economy is left in shambles due to all major industrial centers being destroyed by flooding/civil war/depopulation.

https://www.cbc.ca/documentarychannel/features/the-ultimate-in-luxury-tea-puerh-sells-for-up-to-10000-kg

Last December, Sotheby's Hong Kong announced the launch of its inaugural Puer tea online auction with 20-plus lots, spanning from century-old antiques to modern day tipples. The highest bid of US$71,600 (HK$562,500) went to a 1950 Blue Label tea cake weighing around 330 grams – a lot celebrated not just for its antiquity, but because it is from a rare batch made during the municipalisation of tea production in China.

I heard about cha gao/tea resin for the first time in a youtube video a few days ago, I'm considering buying some but there's only three listings of it on (US) amazon so I'm worried that there's a reason it's not more popular. You ever had this stuff/is it worth buying?

Fennel is an anti inflammatory and suppresses appetite, its good for the heart, is generally a safeguard against disease (my dad swears its why he looks younger than everyone else at his workplace. Its probably more that he never eats "junk food" in general but it helps)

Hibiscus is good for your liver and pissing and muscles and stuff

Rosehip is good for skin joints and general connective tissues

Also all of these with the exception of fennel are very tasty. Fennel is an admittedly acquired taste. It has the flavour of candies that are in the boxes people use to store sewing supplies in

Jump in the discussion.

I'm just saying:

Aluminum is neurotoxic

When nanoparticulate aluminum is injected to rats, it crosses their blood-brain barrier

This causes brain disease of various sorts, in lab rats

When you include aluminum in vaccines as an adjuvant, it makes them more effective and more profitable per dose

There has never been a placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial of any of the vaccines you gave your children

Autism rates have increased in lockstep with the number of vaccines on the schedule and

Black boys are getting hit hardest but literally nobody gives a frick and asks why
