When my 78-year-old grandmother started struggling with high blood sugar, hypertension, and fatty liver, doctors prescribed the usual medications. But she believed in nature’s power — and decided to try a traditional herbal drink that she learned from her mother.
Months later, her results surprised everyone. Her blood pressure stabilized, her liver tests improved, and her glucose levels dropped significantly. The secret? A simple morning tea made from laurel leaves, chamomile, and hibiscus (jamaica).
🌿 The Power Trio: Laurel, Chamomile, and Hibiscus
1. Laurel (Bay Leaf)
Laurel leaves are not just for cooking. Studies show that bay leaves can help regulate blood sugar by improving insulin function and reducing glucose absorption. They also support liver detoxification, helping flush out fat and toxins.
Their natural antioxidants fight inflammation — one of the main causes of chronic diseases like diabetes and hypertension.
2. Chamomile (Manzanilla)
Chamomile tea is famous for calming nerves and promoting sleep, but it also has strong anti-inflammatory and liver-protective properties.
According to research, chamomile can lower blood sugar, improve digestion, and reduce oxidative stress on the liver — all essential for those managing fatty liver or diabetes.
3. Hibiscus (Flor de Jamaica)
Hibiscus is rich in anthocyanins — powerful plant antioxidants that give the petals their deep red color. These compounds help lower blood pressure, balance cholesterol, and protect liver cells.
Drinking hibiscus tea regularly has been linked to reduced triglycerides and better overall cardiovascular health.
