Default Yogi Stress Relief Kava Tea

Anyone tried it? If so, is it any good? I got mine in the mail today, and I thought i'd ask opinions before I tried it. It smells like it will have a cinnamon flavor. I was also wondering how it fared as far as actually relieving any stress.

I don't know about that particular variety, but I have some Yogi green tea and it's pretty good. I probably wouldn't buy it again though, because I live close to a Whole Foods Market and they have a huge selection of bulk tea varieties. Even the least expensive stuff there is better than most any tea bag, and it's considerably cheaper, too. Plus I can get a bit of this and a bit of that; variety is my friend!

If you are worried about weed not getting you that job you want, I can honestly say that the Yogi Detox Tea is excellent. I had to take a UT and a blood test for my job, because I work around argricultural chemicals. I took that tea for two days and passed both tests. I know they looked for weed, because they are VERY strict on safety, and anything "illegal" would have thrown a flag up.

The tea has also helped with reducing and ridding of boils. Boils are blood born, from what i've read.

Any scientific data on how a tea can remove THC from the body? I'm extremely skeptical of that...

I love Yogi tea! I have the green tea, and it is yummy. You have to tell me if the stress relieving tea works. And I have heard a lot about Whole Foods Market recently, but I dont think that they have one in my area yet. We just got a Trader Joes, and I am supposed to go sometime this year (whenever I have enough time)

Whole foods is rather over hyped, imo. Tere are some things they have that are cool, like the teas, and they also have some house brands that are good quality at a fair price, like olive oils. A lot of the things they have are not that great, and way over priced. The prepared foods are disgusting, imo. Their meats and seafood are decent, but they are really expensice. You can get much better product for less money from a specialty butcher or seafood place. IMO, whole foods can be a cool place to have close by, but for the most part it's just a store for yuppies to pay too much for rather ordinary stuff. Oh, and their produce absolutely sucks.

Yeah toman-- I understand what you are saying about these chain health food stores. They do seem to cater to the yuppies in the world. I usually try to buy most of my food at the mom and pop shops or get my produce from some random farmer on the side of the road or farmers markets. And if I want to buy meat I go to the local butcher/farmer when I can splurge If there is something I dont like then I go to the chain markets. I think I would like the bulk tea though b/c I drink it like it is my job

Iced green tea is like my favorite drink. Throw in a little lime or lemon juice, and it's the ultimate thirst quencher.

I just bought Yogi calming tea last night and let me tell you, it calmed me!! It made me feel like I was sinking into my couch, very relaxing I was surprised I got it cause the mixture of herbs sounded good to me, but it really did relax me!!!
