Thanks for the info and i'd like try it out. Can you give perhaps more detailed info about how do you make your tea? and where do you find that tea?
Sure thing. I have a 50oz borosilicate pitcher, lead-free tempered glass. I fill it about 3/4 full with spring water, bring to a boil, take off burner, add about 2 heaping tablespoons of ceylon cinnamon and 1 heaping cup of Nettle tea leaves (cut and sifted), cover with a hermetically sealing lid (to keep the volatile oils from escaping), stir it up a bit and steep overnight. The next morning, in a coffee mug I heat up some water and add about 2 tablespoons of honey. I combine the honey water and the nettle+cinnamon tea and divide into two 16oz water bottles, staining out the nettle leaves, I drink one bottle per day. This recipe makes a pretty strong tea, which I personally like, you can always add more water if it's too strong.
My pitcher has a built in strainer in the lid. This is the one I have.
I do this every couple days. Not sure it lasts more than a couple days in the fridge.
I've tried many other things, rinitadine, slippery elm, mastic gum, tums, licorice, zinc carnosine, hypnosis, this seems to do the trick. Hope it helps!
