Common Uses

A refreshing coffee like drink that has a tonic effect on the liver. An excellent alternative to coffee. Tastes very similar to coffee, however it is caffeine free.

Suggested Dosage

Use these sachets like tea bags. It is very important that when you first make this drink, you make it very weak. To do this, get 1 bag and dunk it into a cup of boiling water, just once or twice, so it is very weak. Put the bag aside and use this next time. When you drink this, you should not feel sluggish or get a headache. If you do, this shows that you made it too strong. Squeeze 1/2 a lemon in water and drink this. It may help to clear the feeling. This feeling shows that you made it too strong. The cleansing effect is happening too quickly. Do not have any more for that day and the following day, make it weaker. Each day increase the strength. Do not be put off by the initial weakness of the beverage. Very soon you will be able to handle a full flavoured drink. Yummy. Can also be put in a teapot. Alternatively it comes in granules, to use in a plunger.

Chicory is a herb that is specific for the liver, gall bladder and spleen. It supports the liver, promotes the formation of bile and removes excess fluid from the body - which is usually accumulated when the liver is malfunctioning. This herb is also an excellent blood purifier for conditions such as acne, itchy and scaly rashes and eczema. Chicory has also been used as a drink to help in the elimination of gall stones and for the elimination of internal mucus. It is also used for gastritis, poor appetite (It won't increase your appetite if it is already ok) and digestive difficulties. Chicory is a plant from the same family as dandelion. Chicory roots have been used throughout time for their tonifying, cleansing and digestive properties. Milk mixed with Chicory is pleasantly flavoured and more digestible.
