The 3 Best Medicinal Teas To Drink At Night

Few things can be more suitable than preparing those very hot infusions that help us relax and alleviate discomfort at the end of the night.

We choose our favorite cup, we go to the sofa with a good book and we drink that medicinal remedy little by little. Not only will we enjoy a more relaxed sleep, but also, if you choose the most suitable plants, you will get many more benefits to start the next day with energy.

1. Infusions of lemon balm and rosemary

Its taste is delicious. Do you want to know why it is so appropriate to take it late at night?

• Melissa is one of the best known natural relaxants that exist. Its properties were proven in people with anxiety disorders, stress and sleep problems.
• It is smooth, with a pleasant flavor and, in turn, combines very well with other medicinal plants, hence we have chosen it to mix it with rosemary.
• Lemon balm helps improve digestion. So, if you are one of those people who tends to feel bothered by gas at the end of the day, this remedy could go very well for you.

• Rosemary is one of the medicinal plants that help to raise the defenses.
• According to the same study, it also helps us relax.
• Rosemary is also rich in vitamin C.

If you get used to taking this infusion every night, you will notice how, little by little, you catch fewer colds or infections. Remember, of course, that this infusion (nor the following ones) is not intended to replace any medical treatment.
