Product Description - Yogi Tea DeTox Tea 16 Tea Bags

Hoxsey Red Clover Burdock Plus Blood Cleansing Herbal Formula

As everyday impurities find their way into our bodies, we may be left feeling tired or out of balance. Yogi DeTox is a gentle way to help the body cleanse itself by aiding the two primary filtering organs, the liver and kidneys. Our tea uses the time-honored purifying herbs Burdock and Organic Dandelion to support the liver, and Juniper Berry to promote kidney function. The traditional Ayurvedic cleansing blend called "trikatu" (Ginger, Black Pepper, and Long Pepper) supports blood flow, while Indian Sarsaparilla adds spicy flavor. When combined with an overall wellness program, DeTox helps bring healthy balance from within.

Indian Sarsaparilla Root

Traditionally used as one of the herbs that gives the delicious taste to root beer, Indian Sarsaparilla Root has also been used medicinally as a "spring tonic" for its detoxifying features. Sarsaparilla contains plant hormones that are throught by herbalists to support and balance "heat" in the body.

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.

Ginger Root

Ginger Root, the underground stem, or rhizome, of the plantZingiber officinale, has been used in many herbal traditions since ancient times. In Ayurveda, ginger is known as the wonder herb, and it's no wonder, since Ayurveda uses ginger for a wide variety of conditions, including supporting digestion. Historically, ginger root was one of the most respected herbs for supporting joint health. Ginger has also been traditionally used to support healthy peripheral circulation, so it can help warm up cold hands and feet, and will also promote sweating when that is needed.

Licorice Root

Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) 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.

Burdock Root

Burdock Root - a member of the daisy family that originated in Eurasia - is now firmly established as a naturalized plant in North America. Herbalists value burdock for helping to detoxify the liver. The root is served as a food in Japan, where it is known as gobo. Resembling a long brown carrot, burdock can be prepared in the same way you might enjoy a carrot, such as fresh juice or in a stir-fry dish.

Dandelion Root

The root of a plant that many see as a pesky yard weed is a celebrated liver cleanser in the world of herbal medicine. Dandelion root has been traditionally used to support the liver, which in turn can support the skin.

Cardamom Seed

Cardamom seed is a uniquely flavored culinary herb in the ginger family. But cardamom seed 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.

Clove Bud

Clove Buds are the aromatic dried flower buds of a tree in the Myrtle family. The English name clove derives from Latinclavus(nail), as the shape of the buds resembles small nails. Clove bud is widely used as a spice in ancient Asian herbal traditions. With a warming quality, clove supports circulation and digestion.

Black Pepper

Not only is Black Pepper one of the most widely used culinary spices in the world, it also has a long history of use in traditional herbal medicine. A spicy herb that can help support digestion, it also supplies antioxidants, which can help to reduce free radicals. As a diuretic, black pepper can support water balance in the body.

Long Pepper Berry

Long Pepper Berry (Sanskritpippali) is a peppercorn approximately one to two inches in length that is used in Ayurvedic and Chinese herbalism. Ayurveda considers pippali to help cleanse the blood. It is also renowned as a beneficial herb for supporting the digestive and respiratory systems.

Chinese Amur Cork Tree Bark

Chinese Amur Cork Tree Bark, calledHuang Baiin China, is commonly used in Chinese herbalism, where it is considered to be one of the 50 fundamental herbs. It includes berberine, a natural chemical that makes the herb appear yellow. Traditionally used primarily to reduce "heat energy" in the body, this herb is also used to support bowel, vaginal and urinary function, and can help support healthy joints.

Japanese Honeysuckle Flower

Japanese Honeysuckle is a species of honeysuckle native to eastern Asia. Highly valued in Traditional Chinese medicine, where it is known as ren dong teng ("winter enduring vine") this cooling herb is used to help balance excessive heat in the throat and support the lungs. It is also used as an overall support to the immune system.

Forsythia Fruit

Forsythia fruit is the dried seed pod ofForsythia suspensa, a lovely bright yellow flowering bush that is among the first spring blooms in many northern climates. Native to China, forsythia fruit is used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for detoxifying. Because of its detoxifying qualities, forsythia fruit often finds its way into TCM formulas to support the kidneys and skin.

Gardenia Fruit

Gardenias were originally found only in China and Japan, but today there are over 200 different species of gardenia, mostly hybrids, throughout the world. Gardenia fruit is used extensively in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), where it is known aszhi zi. TCM uses gardenia primarily to promote calm, but it is also used to support bladder and urinary tract health.

Chinese Goldenthread Root

Chinese Goldenthread Root is one of the coldest and bitterest herbs used in Chinese medicine. Goldenthread is a close relative of an extremely bitter and very useful American herb, the well-known goldenseal. In Chinese medicine, goldenthread is used to promote a calm mood and to support sleep.

Rhubarb Root

Rhubarb Root (Rheum palmatum) is a cold herb that is traditionally used to support bowel elimination. It has been used as a detoxifying herb for the entire body.

Winter Melon Seed

The winter melon seed (also known as wax gourd) has been used as a food and medicine for thousands of years in Traditional Chinese Medicine. The seed is thought by herbalists to be one that can help to "reduce heat," particularly in the large intestine. It also is used to support healthy lung function, the respiratory system and with urination.

Juniper Berry Extract

A juniper berry is not a true berry, but is a seed cone with unusually fleshy and merged scales that give it a berry-like appearance. Used as a spice in European cuisine, juniper berry has been used in traditional herbal medicine to support kidney and urinary tract function, as well as to help maintain healthy blood pressure levels that are already within the normal range. The essential oil can be stimulating to the kidneys. The warming and bitter properties support digestion and can soothe intestinal gas. Juniper berry can also be warming for the joints.

Yogi Tea

Our story begins in 1969 when Yogi Bhajan, an inspired and inspiring teacher of holistic living, started teaching yoga in America. He shared the wisdom and knowledge of Ayurveda and healthy living that he had mastered in India with his students while serving a specially spiced tea, which they affectionately named "Yogi Tea." The recipe contained five traditional Ayurvedic spices: cardamom seed, cinnamon bark, clove bud, ginger root and black pepper. When blended and brewed, these delicious spices leave you feeling vibrant and alive, while boosting overall well-being. Intrigued by the complex flavor and inherent health benefits of this unique combination of spices, it wasn't long before several of the yogi's students were inspired to brew their own "Yogi Tea."

In 1984 this grassroots endeavor blossomed into the Yogi Tea Company. Packages of the rough, dried spices began to appear in natural foods stores throughout Southern California. As demand increased, the spices were more finely ground, packaged and sealed into individual tea bags. By 1986, Yogi Tea was distributed nationwide in three flavors.

Yogi has continued to expand and evolve our tea offerings to address specific health needs by creating specialized herbal formulas, blended for both flavor and purpose. Today, Yogi has over 60 tea blends, many of which are created using the five original Yogi spices. Yogi teas are available in natural, grocery and mass market stores in the US and Canada.

The Yogi Philosophy

At Yogi we believe the purpose of business is to serve. Yogi was founded on that belief and still uses the idea of business serving as its guiding principle: "Feel Good, Be Good, Do Good." At Yogi we are committed to providing healthy, natural teas that are accessible to as many people as possible. With more than 40 years of experience, we strive to support the health and well-being of our consumers by incorporating the highest-quality natural and organic ingredients in our teas.

The holistic teachings of Ayurveda and healthy living are the inspiration behind Yogi. These teachings continue to inform how we develop our products, and we honor and reflect them through the Yogi Principles.

Yogi Principles

  • Tasting great is essential, but it isn't enough. If what we make doesn't taste great and leave you feeling great, we won't make it.
  • We think before we blend. How will our recipes work with body and mind?
  • Health is found in nature. We work with what nature already offers rather than trying to concoct it. We don't have laboratories, we have kitchens.
  • Creative combinations can optimize what nature has to offer. Ever added peppermint to ginger? They work together to produce a remarkably fresh and innovative taste…and a remarkably invigorating experience.
  • Whenever possible, we work with wholes, not parts. We blend with whole spices and botanicals for their natural goodness - we don't supplement with vitamins and minerals.

Yogi has been creating all-natural and organic teas for more than 30 years. Our philosophy is simple: we believe wholesome, unprocessed foods are the best way to enjoy essential health benefits complimented by intriguing, delightful flavors - qualities that make all of our products uniquely Yogi.

Quality Testing

To ensure consistency and quality, Yogi ingredients are meticulously reviewed and tested for insecticides, pesticides and heavy metals. Our ingredients are handled carefully, from the time they're harvested, through the manufacturing process in our organically certified facility. We strictly adhere to the prohibition of GMO ingredients as required by the National Organic Program of the U.S. Department of Agriculture and by Quality Assurance International (QAI), our third party organic certifier.

This process ensures Yogi teas are made to our own scrutinizing standards and ultimately deliver unsurpassed quality to you, our customer.

Packaging and Shipping

Our teas are packaged and shipped responsibly. Herbs are carefully placed into 100% oxygen bleached paper bags, sewn with pure cotton strings and stapled with inert metal. Every Yogi tea bag is then individually packed in heat-sealed envelopes to preserve the intrinsic health benefits of our herbs, natural antioxidants and maintain freshness and flavor.

At Yogi, we are truly committed to sustainability, doing our part to protect our forests, and reducing landfill burden. We package all of our Yogi teas in 100% recycled paperboard and ship the product in cases of 100% recycled cardboard. Our tea packaging has a 55% post-consumer waste content. We print all of our packaging with environmentally-friendly, vegetable-based inks. Our commitment ensures the highest quality products for you, while respecting our planet. It is our hope that this goodness shines through in every Yogi product.
