Recently, I came across a company which offered an intriguing idea: that their tea aids with muscle recovery post workouts. Naturally, being a big fan of tea and working out, I was curious about what they had to offer. It was worth a shot right? What did I have to lose.
The tea I received completely blew my mind. COMPLETELY. It was one of the most tastiest, flavoursome and healthy teas I have drunk in a long time. Without any addition of sugar, honey or sweeteners, this tea shone through with its charisma.
Oops! In my initial excitement I forgot to tell you guys where I got the tea from! These guys have a new brand of tea which is based in Melbourne, Australia and is blended there using pure organic ingredients. All components (it further served to impress me) were organic and free of nasty chemicals. In today's world, where our diet is full of processed foods and preservatives, it's a blast of fresh air when something so natural tastes so good.
The company is called the Organic Trainer. For the love of good tea, give their site a visit at http://theorganictrainer.com.au/
I love that they are a Australian based company. I am all for supporting our local businesses and homegrown talent.
Looking at the ingredients, I could immediately see that the blend was fantastic. Having elements of lemongrass and citrus with tones of peppermint, this taste-gasmic tea was packed with antioxidants and had a great taste to boot. The antioxidants help fight free radical damage, the herbal tea boosts metabolism rates (which I need having the metabolic rate of a sloth) and the anti-inflammatory properties of lemongrass and other other components help with muscle recovery. It's a triple-whammy. Taken with a good protein shake, these two will boost your body's ability to recover after that killer workout.
Having found them through Instagram, I haven't looked back. I proceeded to get the Berry Super 9 post exercise tea. Again, I was not disappointed. The raspberry flavour added a tangy touch to the tea making it perfect served cold in this hot summer weather. After brewing it, I just set it aside in the fridge and after coming back from my daily gym workout, added a few ice-cubes before devouring it. Again, packed full of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties, with ingredients like lemongrass and ginger root, this tea will make you train harder as it reduces the recovery time for muscle repair.
The tea was just too tasty not to tell you guys about. If you are a tea enthusiast like me, care about your health and need something to aid your gym workouts, give this a company a go. You won't regret it.
