Linseed tea

This is called gloop in our house & it’s been a staple of mine for over 10 years.

It doesn’t really taste of anything, but it’s so hydrating & full of lignans which are great for the colon, as well as incredibly calming, so in my opinion well worth having.

There’s a catch 22 situation we have in the body where stress causes dehydration, & when the body registers dehydration it has a stress response – & round it goes.
The colon is the first place to register dehydration, so the gloopy nature of linseed tea in the colon helps to give the message of hydration & therefore switch off the catch 22.

Dehydration is often seen in naturopathy as the cornerstone of good health, & I can tell in my own body the difference that even one cup of this a day can make, especially to my blood sugar levels, which in turn helps to balance many other mechanisms.
