#TraditionalRecipes: It's Tea Time, Mama!

A startup By The Parents For The Parents which exists to solve seemingly little problems of young parents by providing certified toxin free, international standard products under the First MadeSafe Certified brand in Asia. That's what MamaEarth is all about.

MamaEarth is the brainchild of Ghazal and Varun who were, on the birth of their baby, bothered by the reality that due to lack of any regulations most products across categories available in India for babies were not safe.

With the aim of making products which are mum-baby friendly, toxin-free, meet stringent international standards, MamaEarth was born.

I was recently introduced to MamaEarth by a colleague who is a new mother and the fact that the brand has ventured into #TraditionalRecipes with the introduction of Herb Infused Teas and Apple Cider Vinegar.



All of the products introduced as 'Traditional Recipes' on the occasion of National Nutrition Week can be used by mothers (Mama's Milk Tea for lactating mothers) and all adults.

Herbal teas are a convenient way to up one's fluid intake and settle for some extra nutrients on the side. Herbal teas have become quite popular as their possession of medicinal benefits has come to light.

Make that 'Herbal Tea', in particular


Hence I decided to go ahead and try out the two Herb Infused Teas - namely Feel Better Tea and Stress Relief Tea - priced at an economical ₹599 each.

Both the teas are marketed in boxes containing 30 sachets of tea dips.



Also, there were some cautions before use mentioned on the lids of both boxes.



While the Feel Better Tea provides for better digestion and immunity, the Stress Relief Tea does just what its name suggests.

The Feel Better Tea has numerous herbs going into its making, each with its unique advantages, thus boosting a parent's immunity over time.


  • Nettle leaf is a herbaceous perennial flowering plant that is a strong anti-oxidant and thus purifies the blood stream and cleanses skin pores. It also is a relief for an upset stomach.
  • Ginger aids in digestion while countering nausea. It is the best bet when seeking respite from a bacterial imbalance in the gut.
  • Mint provides active defenses from a common cough and cold and can also help soothe menstrual cramps.
  • Chamomile is a relaxant that helps sleep better, builds immunity. 



As for the Stress Relief Tea, it promotes relaxation and reduces tension and fatigue, thanks to some chosen natural agents working for the cause.



  • Sarsaparilla root, thanks to its saponins, sterols, and antioxidants, has been known to ease fatigue and enhance immunity. It also acts as a natural blood cleanser.
  • Cinnamon bark is one of the powerful natural antioxidants available and has been known for its amazing medicinal properties. Apart from relieving stress, cinnamon, being a versatile spice, is a super-spice as it possesses antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, antimicrobial, immunity-boosting, cancer and heart disease protecting qualities.
  • Eucalyptus oil acts an instant stress reliever and can also enhance brain wave activity as it reduces mental fatigue and relieves muscle and joint pain. Apart from that, it can keep heart diseases at bay as it reduces inflammation in blood vessels. 




I tried both the teas for myself and felt relaxed on multiple levels. With their #TraditionalRecipes, MamaEarth is sure set to attract a lot of new parents looking to reinstate their immunity and bid adieu to stress. :)
