Grapefruit has a compound called naringenin that studies have shown can make our insulin more effective. This tea was featured on “The Martha Stewart Show” (and Martha loved it!).

Natural Cough-Control Tea

For natural, reliable cough relief, try a tea recipe featuring thyme, which alleviates chest congestion and supports respiratory function, along with throat-soothing honey, sage, and vitamin-C-rich lemon.

Spiced Hot Dark Chocolate
