Health Benefits
- Healthier heart. Safflower tea is perhaps most famous for its ability to help lower cholesterol and improve the heart’s overall health. The herb is full of linoleic acid, and it’s this fatty acid that contributes to reducing cholesterol in the body, which in turn, prevents heart disease. In fact, in a study conducted by Ohio State University, HDL (‘good’ cholesterol) levels in the participants were found to have increased by 14%. According to Dr Martha Belury, who led the study: ‘I certainly think it’s possible that the risk of cardiovascular problems could be significantly decreased…/…if supplementation were continued’.
- Improved circulation. Safflower assists with circulation and is often used to treat poor circulation and blood clots. It’s also effective when used to ease obstructed menstrual flow.
- Anti-Inflammatory. It’s believed that safflower has anti-inflammatory properties and can help those suffering from chronic inflammation of the joints, such as arthritis or gout. This is because the tea contributes to flushing toxins from the system and indirectly stimulates the production of hydrochloric acid (which contributes to eradicating uric acid deposits within the body).
- It eases painful muscles. Safflower tea offers a considerable advantage to athletes and sportspeople, as it reduces lactic acid build-up in the muscles, which produces painful cramping.
- System cleanser. The tea is excellent for detoxing their system as it acts as a bladder cleanser and a mild laxative, flushing unwanted toxins from the body. It also raises levels of sweat, which not only rids the body of toxins but helps to reduce fever.
