Butterfly pea flower tea, made from the Clitoria ternatea plant, has been used for centuries in Southeast Asia. It’s known for its vibrant blue color and subtle earthy flavor, but it also offers a range of potential health benefits:
1. Rich in Antioxidants
- Contains powerful antioxidants like anthocyanins, particularly ternatins, which help combat oxidative stress and may support cellular health.
2. Anti-Inflammatory Properties
- Traditionally used to reduce inflammation, it may help with minor aches, pains, or swelling.
3. Supports Brain Health
- Contains acetylcholine, which is linked to improved memory and cognitive function. Often used in Ayurvedic medicine for brain health.
4. Mood Enhancement
- May have mild anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) effects, promoting relaxation and reducing stress.
5. Promotes Skin and Hair Health
- The antioxidants and flavonoids can support collagen production and skin elasticity. It’s also believed to improve scalp circulation and hair strength.
6. May Help Regulate Blood Sugar
- Early studies suggest potential for blood sugar regulation, though more research is needed.
7. Supports Eye Health
- Contains proanthocyanidin, which enhances blood flow to the capillaries of the eyes, potentially aiding in vision and eye health.
8. Natural Detox and Diuretic
- Often used in traditional medicine to flush toxins and support kidney function.
Bonus:
Color-Changing Fun
- When you add lemon or anything acidic, it changes from blue to purple — completely natural and visually striking.
