CBD detox infusions: 4 criteria for choosing

Meeting up at the end of the day for tea with friends and family, or enjoying a cup of tea in the evening... Whether these are social moments that allow us to relax in a friendly atmosphere or relaxation breaks that we give ourselves, they are all moments that do our bodies good.

Saturated fats, alcohol, tobacco, pesticides, air pollution, ... Our body is subjected to multiple harmful elements. However, natural products can help to "depollute" our body. And among them, herbal teas and detox teas containing CBD are in a good place because they allow to combine the pleasure of an infusion, the natural virtues of some plants with the therapeutic effects of cannabidiol

All this while being particularly easy to consume since these drinks can be taken at any time of the day.

Choice of detox infusion

That said, given the diversity of products on the market, there are 4 things to consider when choosing your CBD infusions. 

1. The origin of the ingredients

In order for the benefits of these infusions and detox teas to be maximised, the plants used in them must be of high quality, preferably organically grown.

This is the choice that Naturalpes has made by associating with 1001 herbes, a certified Bio Suisse company that grows its herbs in the canton of Geneva, without using chemical treatments, to offer herbal teas composed of natural products from Swiss organic farming. As Camille Boschung, a certified horticulturist, explains, "all our aromatic and medicinal herbs and edible flowers are grown, dried and packaged in the Geneva countryside. As a bonus, the benefits of the infusions are quickly felt and their varied flavors are suitable for every season.

Quality natural products

In terms of ingredients, Naturalpes has decided to use one main element as a "base", given all its beneficial effects on the body: scented verbena, a plant native to South America also known as Lippia citriodora, which acts as a mild sedative on the central system and is therefore especially recommended for treating anxiety and stress.

In summary: 

It is essential to turn to recognised brands that are able to present the composition and natural origin of the products selected for the preparation of aromatic mixtures.

2. The desired effects

CBD Sleep

Even if the CBD concentrated in the preparations allows globally to reduce anxiety, stress and anguish, and may relieve some muscular or bone pains, the composition of the preparation will bring other effects.

Thus, at Naturalpes, we have developed different infusions:

  • Summer Flowers infusion: a very fragrant blend that acts as an antispasmodic and mild sedative, while stimulating the entire body. This infusion is especially useful for relieving coughs and promoting digestion.
  • theAutumn Freshness infusion, whose plants are both expectorant and anti-oxidant, and therefore help to strengthen and stimulate the body.
  • Christmas infusion with hemp, which contains cinnamon, star anise with its invigorating action, appreciated in cases of fatigue, and orange mint, a stimulating plant that can prevent sleep if consumed in the evening.
  • Well-being infusion: this is the 2nd best-selling blend in this category. Composed of first choice organic plants (hemp leaves and stems, peppermint, nettle, lemon balm, coltsfoot, vervain, elderberry, fennel, raspberry, mallow, lemon grass and cornflower), this infusion is a combination of anti-oxidant plants that strengthens the immune system. In addition, the taste of hemp is discreet.
  • Good night tea: this is the best-selling preparation in this category. A good night's sleep promotes concentration and the use of all physical and mental capacities. This is why Naturalpes has developed this herbal tea made from fully certified organic plants in accordance with the Bio Suisse specifications followed by Camille Boschung's farm. The ingredients (hemp, linden, verbena, lemon thyme and apple) are carefully selected by our herbalist to promote relaxation and sleep.

In summary: 

Relaxation and reduction of stress, improvement of sleep, maintenance of sleep quality, fight against insomnia, accumulation of several effects... The effects of these infusions and detox teas are different depending on the product. It is therefore advisable to choose the product according to your desires and expectations.

3. The method of preparation

The methods of preparation differ, it is not always enough to add hot water to a mixture of plants to feel the effects of the preparation. For example, for the Summer Flowers infusion, the elements should be left to infuse cold for 12 hours and then filtered, whereas the Hemp Wellness infusion, designed to stimulate the immune system, should be infused in water at 75 degrees for 6 to 8 minutes.

It is also important to know that cannabinoids are, by nature, fat-soluble. It is therefore necessary to add a fatty substance to your infusion once prepared, to make the active ingredients of hemp soluble. 

Also, after boiling the hemp tea, we recommend adding 15 cl of milk, preferably whole milk. For those who are lactose intolerant, simply replace the milk with a vegetable drink: almond milk, soya milk, etc.

And for those who don't want to add fat, you can still consume your cannabis tea as is, but keep in mind that the soothing and relaxing effects of CBD will be much "weaker".

In order to combine the pleasure of an infusion with the therapeutic effects of CBD at any time of the day, all infusions have been developed in such a way that they are easy to prepare.

In summary: 

The effects of these drinks can be quite mild, but a consumer will indeed feel a relaxing effect when drinking a CBD infusion if it is prepared properly. It is therefore important to refer to the preparation conditions and to keep in mind that adding a fatty substance to the infusion will allow the active elements of the hemp to have more effects.

4. Flavours

Finally, the selected plants allow new aromas and tastes to be added, sometimes sweet, spicy, sour, etc. 

The Summer Flowers infusion, composed of fragrant verbena, Moroccan mint, lemon thyme, basil, sunflowers, cornflowers and monarda flowers, has a sweet taste enhanced by a hint of spice. 

The Autumn Freshness herbal tea, with scented verbena, cinnamon basil, Moroccan mint, sunflower flowers, blueberry flowers and pineapple sage flowers, is so fresh that it feels like a mint in your mouth. In addition, its fragrance is very spicy (thanks to the camphor) and surprisingly sweet (thanks to the citrus).

In summary: 

The choice of a detox infusion is therefore based on the desired effects, but also on the taste. At Naturalpes, we attach importance to the flavours so that the plants used blend well with the taste of hemp.
