Hot Tea is my GO TO when I’m sick …

And now I have added #shilajit honey sticks !!! They’re so convenient and mess free… I actually carry them in my bag for #lowbloodsugar episodes, because generally I have to keep my sugar intake under 25g/day (thanks #candida …) but these are only 6g!!! I love the Shilajit for some spice, or the #ashwagandha for a vanilla sweetness!!! 👏🏼

Sample from: TikTok Shop (check my showcase!)

⭐️Overall rating: 10/10

Additional Tips: drizzle them on a piece of toast, use them in your coffee, orrrr just take em straight to the face !!!!

... Read moreHot tea has long been cherished for its soothing qualities, especially during cold and flu season. Packed with antioxidants, herbal teas like elderberry and echinacea not only help support immune function but also provide relief from symptoms such as sore throat and congestion. Adding sweeteners such as honey can enhance the flavor and offer additional soothing properties, particularly for coughs. Shilajit, a powerful natural resin, is often used in traditional medicine for its health benefits, including energy boosting and immune support. Its combination with honey sticks makes for an easy-to-use supplement that caters to those with low blood sugar issues. Moreover, adaptogens like ashwagandha provide a calming sweetness that helps balance stress. Enjoy experimenting with various flavors and combinations of hot teas to find your perfect blend that not only comforts when sick but also promotes overall wellness.
