Licorice Root

Licorice root is a flavorful, sweet herb that has been used for thousands of years and is still one of the most widely used herbs in all herbal systems. Licorice has been used traditionally to support the skin and the liver. It also is thought by herbalists to help soothe indigestion and the throat.

Chamomile Flower

Chamomile is a flowering plant in the daisy family that is native to Europe and Asia. The flower is a mild relaxant that supports balanced mood; hence a cup of tea made with chamomile is a time-honored herb used to promote sleep.

Spearmint Leaf

Spearmint Leaf has been used for culinary and medicinal purposes since the time of the ancient Romans. It is mildly soothing and relaxing overall. Ayurveda says that this herb can help to clear the mind and senses. Like all mints, spearmint is a mild diaphoretic that can help support the respiratory system.

Skullcap Leaf

Skullcap is a member of the mint family, and has numerous uses in traditional herbal medicine. Traditionally used as a mild relaxant. Ayurveda says that skullcap enhances meditation and awareness and that it is emotionally, as well as physically, calming.

Cardamom

Cardamom is a uniquely flavored culinary herb in the ginger family. But cardamom is more than its delicious flavor. This herb is warming and has been traditionally used to support healthy stomach and digestive function as well as the respiratory system.

Cinnamon Bark

Cinnamon Bark comes from a small evergreen tree that is native to Sri Lanka. Cinnamon is a pungent, sweet and hot spice that can warm and invigorates the body and support function of the respiratory and digestive systems. It can also help to promote circulation to the joints and support immune function.

Passion Flower Extract

Passion flower is a vine known for its beautiful white flowers with purple, blue, or pink calyx crown blooms. Native to the Americas, the plant is primarily tropical, but some of its 400 species can grow in colder climates. In traditional herbal medicine, passion flower has been used to support relaxation. The leaves are used to support a relaxed mood, soothe stress and tension and to support sleep.

Rose Hip

The rose hip is the pomaceous (similar to an apple) fruit of the rose plant. Rose hip has a delicious tart taste and astringent action and supplies antioxidants and vitamin C. In traditional herbal medicine, rose hip is used to support the immune system.

Valerian Root Extract

See Valerian Root

Lavender Flower

Lavenders belong to the Mint family of plants, which includes many herbs such as sages, thymes, rosemary, savory, oregano, balms and mints. Often referred to as English Lavender Flower, so-called because it formed the basis of England's lavender oil industry in the 18th century, is a beautiful, delightfully fragrant herb. Lavender has been traditionally used to support balanced mood, as well as to help soothe occasional stress and support sleep.

Stevia Leaf

Stevia is a genus of about 240 species of herbs and shrubs in the sunflower family native to subtropical and tropical South America and Central America. The leaf is used primarily as a sweetener in South America. Locals there use it as a substitute for sugar for those who can't use sugar. Various glycosides, including stevoside - which is about 100 to 200 times sweeter than sugar - provide the sweetness. It is widely used as a non-sugar sweetener in other areas of the world, particularly in Japan.

Natural and Organic Flavors

Natural and organic flavors are derived from natural sources such as spices, fruit, herbs, roots, or many other plants or foods, whose significant function in food is flavoring.

How do I brew Yogi tea?

To get the most out of your cup of Yogi tea, we recommend following the suggested brewing instructions found on the back panel of each Yogi tea carton. These instructions can also be found on the back of each individual Yogi tea envelope.

Can I drink Yogi teas cold or over ice?

Our teas are formulated based on Ayurvedic principles that encourage drinking hot teas for the most effective digestion and health benefits.

The functional benefits of Yogi teas work the same whether cool or hot, as long as you follow our recommended brewing instructions.

To prepare Yogi iced tea, we recommend using 8 oz water per tea bag. Bring the water just to boiling and steep for the time indicated on the back of the Yogi carton. Once the tea has fully steeped, allow it to cool at room temperature or in the refrigerator. Once chilled to your desired temperature, you may then add sweeteners, lemon, and/or ice to suit your preference. If you plan on adding ice to your Yogi tea, we suggest using 2 tea bags per 8 oz water.

For iced tea in minutes, use 2 tea bags per every 8 ounces of water. Brew and steep as directed, then pour over ice and enjoy!

To learn more about brewing your own Yogi iced tea, visit the

Yogi Tea Talk Blog.

Are Yogi teas organic?

As often as possible, we source organic ingredients. All Yogi teas contain organic ingredients, and the vast majority of them are

Certified USDA Organic or USDA Made with Organic:

USDA Certified Organic – Yogi teas marked with this label contain a minimum of 95% Certified Organic ingredients and have received certification from a United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) accredited organization.

USDA Certified Made with Organic – Yogi teas marked with this label are made with a minimum of 70% Certified Organic ingredients and have received certification by a United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) accredited organization.

To further ensure quality, we require all of our suppliers to adhere to the

USDA’s National Organic Program for all of the ingredients we source from them. Additionally, our production facility is Organically Certified by Quality Assurance International (QAI), an independent third party organic certifier. QAI audits all of the ingredients used in our teas to verify their organic integrity and confirm that each ingredient adheres to the NOP’s strict guidelines and regulations.

You can learn more about our sourcing and quality standards by visiting

Our Process.

Are Yogi teas Non-GMO?

As part of our commitment to adhere to

National Organic Program standards, Yogi teas do not contain GMOs and we are currently in the process of obtaining the official Non-GMO Project Verified certification for all of our tea blends.

Do Yogi teas contain caffeine?

We make over 40 tea blends, some of which contain caffeine and others that are caffeine-free.

The caffeine content information for each Yogi tea variety can be found on both the bottom left corner of the Yogi tea carton and individual tea envelope. The caffeine content of each Yogi tea will be listed as one of the following:

Contains Caffeine: Indicates a tea that contains caffeine. The amount of caffeine is detailed within the Supplement Facts panel, as well as on the back of the individual tea envelope.

Caffeine Free: Indicates teas that do not caffeine as they are made from ingredients that are naturally caffeine-free.

Decaffeinated: Indicates a tea made with some amount of decaffeinated Green Tea leaves, and contains some small residual amount of caffeine. The decaffeinated Green Tea leaf used in our teas is decaffeinated using an all-natural, non-toxic chemical process called Supercritical Carbon Dioxide (or CO2 processing).

This all-natural process does leave behind a residual amount of caffeine (approximately 5-10 mg per tea bag). The exact amount of caffeine is detailed within the Supplement Facts panel on the right side of our tea cartons.

Do Yogi teas contain gluten?

We are happy to confirm that all of our current teas are gluten-free, and our tea bag material and packaging contain no added gluten.

However, please note that previously, the following four teas contained Barley Malt, and therefore gluten:

Calming

Healthy Fasting

Kava Stress Relief

Stomach Ease

The new versions of these teas without Barley Malt began to reach store shelves as of late 2017. You can identify which version you have by looking at the Supplement Facts panel ‘Other Ingredients’ section to see if Barley Malt is listed.

What kind of paper is used for Yogi’s tea bags?

Yogi teas are packaged in non-heat sealable filtration paper – or tea bags – made from a select blend of high-quality manila hemp (abaca) fibers and wood pulp, which is free from plastics.

Our tea bag filtration paper is oxygen bleached using a natural process that is free of chemicals or toxins, including dioxin.

Along with all other components of our packaging, this paper is free of gluten, GMOs, and corn, and does not contain any of the eight FDA-recognized allergens (tree nuts, peanuts, milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, wheat, or soybeans).

You can learn more about the packaging materials used for our teas by visiting

Our Process.

Do Yogi teas contain any known allergens?

All of our teas are made without any of the eight FDA-recognized allergens and therefore DO NOT contain milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, or soybeans. This also applies to the Organic Flavors used in Yogi teas, which are gluten-free and non-GMO and do not contain Mono Sodium Glutamate (MSG).

Can I drink Yogi teas if I’m nursing, pregnant, have a medical condition or am currently taking any medication?

At Yogi, we take a conservative approach to individual health, especially when it concerns those who are pregnant, nursing, have a medical condition, or are taking any medications.

While not all Yogi teas carry warnings, some of them do carry a warning to consult a healthcare provider prior to use if you are pregnant, nursing, have a medical condition, or are taking any medication. If a Yogi tea carries this warning, it would be printed on the Supplement Facts panel on the tea’s outer carton.

For specific questions regarding Yogi teas, please feel free to contact us directly at

[email protected].

Does Yogi tea expire, and how would I determine the expiration date of my tea?

Yogi teas are packaged to preserve freshness and quality for up to two years in a variety of shipping and storage conditions. To ensure maximum flavor and freshness for our consumers, Yogi teas are stamped with a Best Before date, which indicates two years from the date of manufacture. Yogi teas are perfectly safe to enjoy outside of the Best Before window; however, you may notice a difference in potency or flavor after that time.

You can find the Best Before date on your tea carton, located on the same side as the yoga pose.

Treatment of constipation in pregnant women in a private clinic

This is one of the most common, but at the same time the most delicate problems that occur in at least 50% of pregnant women. In a normal state, bowel movements should be daily and in sufficient volume. Any deviations in this process require attention and adjustment of the diet, lifestyle and even psychological attitude. From a physiological point of view, problems in the work of the gastrointestinal tract are explained by hormonal changes and the physiological characteristics of the body of a pregnant woman (under the influence of various processes in different phases of pregnancy, the contraction of the smooth muscles of the intestine is weakened, in addition, the enlarged uterus compresses the intestines, etc.). nine0017

Among other non-medical reasons, the most common are the features of a woman's lifestyle: systematic stress; lack of mobility; lack of fiber; low water intake (not liquids!) and/or high intake of refined foods and foods with a high composition of sugar, homogenized fats and salt (fast food). “Refined foods are refined oils, polished rice, white flour and all the familiar white refined sugar, plus fast food with a high composition of sugar, homogenized fats and salt, which slow down the absorption of nutrients by the body and the passage of food in the intestines” (Laima Lankmane, naturopath, herbalist). nine0017

Homeopaths claim that constipation is not only a “problem” of the rectum, “it is a problem of the whole organism as a whole and it must be solved in a complex way” (D.V. Arkhipova, Ph.D., homeopath): for example, this may be an allergic reaction to certain foods. Therefore, constipation is, in principle, an individual problem, and an individual approach will be the most effective solution to the problem: “Even equally pregnant women do not have 2 identical constipations: some had them before pregnancy, others did not eat properly, others did not move. All good wishes for real constipation will work only in 10% of cases. The only right decision is a full-fledged visit to a homeopath, who will approach the solution of the disharmony that has arisen, taking into account all the individual characteristics of a woman, looking at her as an integral unique system ”(A. S. Gavrilenko, obstetrician-gynecologist, Ph.D., homeopath , reflexologist). nine0017

First, about how NOT to solve the problem of constipation: classic laxatives such as hay, aloe vera and castor oil are contraindicated for pregnant women - they can cause premature contractions.

Now about what is POSSIBLE and NEEDED.

DIET

Need to temporarily eliminate dairy products. “The main milk protein, casein, is one of the most difficult to digest proteins and is also a strong allergen. The fact that cottage cheese itself is capable of causing constipation is probably known to everyone. If you solve the problem with constipation in this way, then carefully introduce natural fermented milk products into the diet (preferably without flavorings and sugar) ”(D.V. Arkhipova, Ph.D., homeopath). It’s not worth worrying that the baby won’t get enough of something - he will take everything he needs from “mother’s reserves”, and the question is not in the amount eaten, but in the amount absorbed by the mother’s body. From the point of view of homeopathy, if you want - eat, no - you don’t need to force yourself, because. food likes and aversions are in accordance with our constitution, and therefore our needs (naturally, this applies to healthy and healthy eating habits). nine0004
It is necessary to monitor the liquid used - or rather, drink enough clean water. Volume - from one to three liters per day, if desired, but not less than a liter. “If you don’t feel like drinking water, you need to remove sweet drinks and teas from the diet and compensate for this with clean water (preferably raw, of artesian origin, pleasant to the taste, and even better thawed).” (T.G. Sadovaya, obstetrician, author of the lecture “Nutrition during pregnancy”).
“Dried fruits are obligatory (you can pour prunes with water at night and drink an infusion in the morning), and / or drink a glass of water in the morning on an empty stomach (you can add a little lemon juice there) and a glass of water with honey at night” (I. S. Arefyeva, obstetrician gynecologist). nine0004
The diet should have a sufficient amount of fiber: at least 50% of the diet of natural plant foods in raw and processed form (fiber stimulates peristalsis). It can be whole grain cereals, products made from wholemeal flour, fruits before meals or in between, vegetables, berries (the same cranberries help with constipation).
A daily intake of 1 to 3 tablespoons of unrefined oils has a good effect on the body. “Sweet almond oil (food) has a pronounced laxative effect and does not irritate the intestinal wall. Olive and linseed oils, as well as walnut oil, also have a mild laxative effect. Do not forget that unrefined oils should be stored in the refrigerator (with the exception of olive oil), and flaxseed should be eaten within a month after opening the bottle. (O.L. Bannikova, obstetrician). nine0004
Add magnesium-rich foods to your diet, such as green leafy vegetables, walnuts and almonds, sunflower seeds (unroasted and preferably pre-soaked for 5-7 hours), green buckwheat and spinach. “You can try this recipe - soak 1 teaspoon of flax seeds in ½ cup of warm water and leave for several hours. Then eat it just like that or add it to porridge, soup” (L. Lankmane, naturopath, phytotherapeutist).
You can try to consume more foods that normalize the balance of intestinal flora - such as kefir (preferably homemade), miso soup, sauerkraut. nine0004
Do not get carried away with strong tea, black coffee, cocoa, chocolate, white bread, flour and slimy soups, semolina, blueberries. All these products, like dry food, have a fixing effect. For the time of problems with the gastrointestinal tract, it is better to observe separate fractional meals, drink liquid 15 minutes before meals or some time later, etc. - that is, to facilitate the assimilation of the food consumed as much as possible. Make sure that there are no distortions - the daily diet should be balanced. nine0004

HOW TO HELP

Enzymatic preparations can be drunk for a short time. If these are preparations of animal origin - no more than 7 days, plant enzymes can be taken longer. You can take probiotics, beneficial gut bacteria that aid digestion. Long-term use of these biological products not only normalizes the intestinal flora, but also contributes to a less pronounced manifestation of dysbacteriosis in a newborn child. (D.V. Arkhipova, homeopath, PhD, pediatrician)
Check the level of iron with a doctor - against the background of its deficiency, there may also be disturbances in the work of the intestines. “But keep in mind that some iron-containing dietary supplements, unfortunately, can only worsen this condition (not to mention dosage forms). It is better to add foods rich in iron, such as almonds, pine nuts, apricots, avocados, sunflower and pumpkin seeds, wheat germ ”(L. Lankmane, naturopath, herbalist).
Freshly squeezed juices, diluted 1 to 1 with water 15 minutes before meals, stimulate the production of pancreatic enzymes and aid digestion in the most natural way. (D.V. Arkhipova, homeopath, PhD, pediatrician)
Drink hot - as far as possible - water on an empty stomach, a little later, eat half a banana, chewing it for a long time and macerating it with saliva to a liquid slurry (the banana must be ripe!). (O.L. Bannikova, obstetrician).
Starting from the second trimester, you can use essential oils: exotic basil (Ocimum basilicum in Latin), seaside pine (Pinus Pinaster), saro (Cinnamosma fragrans, Saro), rosewood (Aniba rosaeodora). “Oils should be only edible, of good quality! It is not recommended to use essential oils during the first 3 months of pregnancy. 1st composition - take 1 drop of basil, 2 drops of pine on a small piece of sugar or honey and suck under the tongue in the morning on an empty stomach. 2nd composition - basil 30 drops, rosewood 20 drops, saro 10 drops and 40 drops of apricot kernel oil or any other unrefined food oil. Mix. Take 3 drops of this mixture under the tongue on sugar or honey morning and evening before meals for 5-7 days or as needed. When buying aroma oils, be sure to check whether there is information on the packaging that this oil can be eaten. (O.L. Bannikova, obstetrician)
If this does not help, you can try to use "Duphalac" for a short time.

LIFESTYLE

Enough physical activity, swimming in the pool. Walking for at least one hour. But the load should be increased gradually. To begin with, one lesson should be no more than 30 minutes. The step should be slow, the shoes are comfortable, and the route should be laid away from the roads. Gymnastics for pregnant women for at least 30 minutes daily. As gymnastics, our yoga instructor for pregnant women Svetlana Shnyrova recommends a few simple exercises:
