How To Make Banana Tea Recipe For Better Sleep
One of the first rules of green living is cutting waste wherever possible. Putting something that most folks toss in the trash to use in the kitchen and home remedy toolkit is one way to get more out of the resources you bring into your home.
HOW TO PREPARE BANANA TEA FOR BETTER SLEEP
- Boil 33 oz (1 liter) of water.
- Cut off the ends of the banana and put it in the water, without any peeling or chopping.
- Take the banana out after 10 minutes
- Filter the tea and let it cool.
If desired, you can also add some cinnamon or honey -- forget about sugar.
If there is any completely natural product as an alternative to sleeping pills then it is the banana. It contains magnesium which calms your body and relaxes your muscles.
TIPS FOR MAKING BANANA PEEL TEA
Always use organic banana peels when possible. Bananas are a heavily-sprayed crop, and rather than tossing a pesticide-laden peel, with banana peel tea, we’re eating it the part of the fruit that likely got hit with the spray. Rinsing won’t get rid of all the pesticide residues, so do use organic bananas if you can.
Another place unwanted industrial chemicals can find their way into our banana tea for sleep is through our water. Most water supplies contain scores of unregulated chemicals, and most water filters don’t take them out. Here’s what to know about choosing an effective water filter.
While many recipes for banana tea use cinnamon, I recommend trying nutmeg, an Ayurvedic sleep enhancer. Nutmeg adds a very pleasant flavor to banana peel tea, and as a spice known for its anti-inflammatory properties, it may help if the pain is one of the things interfering with your sleep.
So, try this quick advice every time you have a tough day. You will not regret it!
