For centuries, herbs and teas have played not only a culinary but also a health-related role, constituting an invaluable treasure of nature for humanity. Their history dates back to ancient civilizations, where they were used not only as spices, but also as medicines. Today, in the era of modern medicine, herbs still play a key role in nutrition, providing not only flavor but also a number of health benefits. Their impact on the human body and mind is undeniable, offering a wealth of nutrients, antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties that support health and well-being.
