Preparing the tea box
The properties and benefits are found in the roots and leaves of the box, for this reason it is recommended to prepare the tea with these parts of the plant through the decoction process. To do this, just put 30 g of the herb root or leaves in a liter of water. Then, take the container with the mixture to the fire and let it boil for five minutes.
After removing from heat, the drink must be strained and served without the addition of sugar, honey or sweetener. The tip is to consume up to four times a day and the liquid should not be stored in the refrigerator for more than a day, as this way the tea is prone to losing its properties and positive effects in relation to the patient’s health.
