Relaxation Tea: How Peppermint and Botanicals Create Calm in a Cup

Not all teas are created equal. Herbalife's Relaxation Tea in Peppermint flavor is specifically formulated to help you unwind, and it does so with just 5 calories per serving. Let's explore what makes this tea different from what you'll find on grocery store shelves.

What Is Relaxation Tea?

Relaxation Tea is a low-calorie herbal tea blend designed to support calm and relaxation. Available in a refreshing Peppermint flavor, it combines traditional botanical ingredients with modern nutritional science to create a soothing beverage you can enjoy hot or cold at any time of day.

Key Ingredients and the Science Behind Them

Every ingredient in Relaxation Tea serves a purpose:

• Peppermint: More than just a flavor. Peppermint has been studied for its natural calming effects on the digestive system and its ability to promote a sense of comfort and ease. The menthol in peppermint is a natural muscle relaxant.
• Green Tea Extract: Provides L-theanine, an amino acid known for promoting calm alertness without drowsiness. L-theanine has been shown in studies to increase alpha brain wave activity, which is associated with a state of relaxed focus.
• Herbal Blend: A combination of carefully selected botanicals that work synergistically to support your body's natural relaxation response.

How Relaxation Tea Works

The magic of Relaxation Tea is in how the ingredients work together:

• Calming without sedation: The L-theanine from green tea promotes relaxation while maintaining mental clarity
• Digestive comfort: Peppermint soothes the digestive tract, which is closely connected to your stress response through the gut-brain axis
• Low-calorie refreshment: At only 5 calories per serving, it replaces high-calorie evening beverages without guilt
• Antioxidant support: Green tea extracts provide antioxidant compounds that support overall wellness
