Ginger-Jujube Tea

Ginger-Jujube Tea supports the Body as the Weather gets Warmer

When the environment temperature rises, the surface of the human skin will increase in temperature. As a result, the body will naturally start pumping more blood to reach close to the surface of the skin in order to cool down the skin surface heat. This reaction will drain the body’s internal energy. Some of the key organs such as the spleen and the stomach will be relatively weak and cold as a result of this. The Ginger-Jujube tea is used to nourish an rejuvenate the spleen and stomach during this period. Drink Ginger-Jujube Tea can help promote lungs qi and expel out the toxin in the body.
