(Price includes VAT.)
The Mountain Tea tincture is derived from soaking the aerial parts of Sideritis (mountain tea) in an alcoholic solution (grappa) for a period of 4-6 weeks. During this time, the active ingredients of the herb dissolve into the alcoholic solution, resulting in the creation of the tincture.
Mountain tea is a famous and unique herb that offers beneficial properties to the body. Specifically, according to the European Medicines Agency, the mountain tea tincture soothes coughs resulting from colds and alleviates mild gastrointestinal issues. Additionally, laboratory studies confirm that the components of mountain tea are particularly effective. For example, flavonoids, diterpenes, phenylpropanoids, iridoids, and monoterpenes are substances that inhibit the reuptake of serotonin and noradrenaline, acting as antidepressants. Various studies support the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and analgesic effects of these substances. Furthermore, research from the Universities of Patras and Ioannina has shown that the infusion of mountain tea, and consequently the tincture, has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anxiolytic properties. Additionally, a study from the University of Athens found that it may help prevent osteoporosis by protecting against bone density loss and enhancing bone strength. Finally, it positively affects conditions like colds and immune system inflammations.
Tinctures preserve all the active ingredients of the herb, are particularly easy to take, and are entirely natural. They undoubtedly surpass dietary supplements in pill form, as they do not contain chemicals or preservatives and are absorbed much more effectively by the body.
Herbal tinctures are very potent and should be consumed according to their instructions. The usual dosage is 0.5-1ml (approximately 10-20 drops) per day. They should not be consumed during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
The Mountain Tea tincture is prepared in Greece under the strictest European standards, using only pure and controlled raw materials.
