Peppermint Patty
A rich blend of Darjeeling black tea, peppermint leaves, South African Rooibos and dark chocolate.
 
South African Rooibos comes from the South African Red Bush (Aspalanthus linearis) and contains
high levels of antioxidants, calcium, manganese, magnesium, and fluoride. It has been used to treat depression, insomnia, digestive problems, hay fever, and asthma. Rooibos is naturally caffeine free. In a recent study, dark chocolate with high-cocoa content is loaded with epicatechin.  It is a particularly active member of a group of compounds called plant flavoniods. Flavoniods keep cholesterol from gathering in blood vessels, reduces the risk of blood clots, lowers blood pressure and slows down the immune responses that lead to clogged arteries.

Nefertiti’s Garden
Blending the calming nature of Egyptian Chamomile with the rarest garden fruit infused white teas and mallow flowers.
 
According to a recent study, antioxidants and polyphenols -- cancer prevention compounds –
are found in highest levels in white tea, which is the least processed of all teas.  There is evidence
that tea's effects on the metabolism can potentially block some forms of cancers with none of the
side effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.  Whereas the herb Chamomile has been
used for centuries for treating an upset stomach, sleeping problems, anxiety and menstrual pain.

The study reviewed here was published in March of 2006 in Cancer Letters titled, "Green tea polyphenols and its constituent epigallocatechin gallate inhibits proliferation of human breast cancer cells in vitro and in vivo". This is a very interesting study. Human breast cancer cells were treated with EGCG, the main compound of interest in green tea. The EGCG was found to slow tumor growth as well as induce the death of cancer cells.  This was done both in vitro (in the dish) and in vivo (in mice with human cancer cells), thus enhancing the importance of the claim.
