Add 3 slices of fresh ginger, 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder (or a slice of fresh root), and a pinch of black pepper to enhance absorption.
Simmer for 5 minutes, then remove from heat and steep covered for 10 minutes.

🌱 Nettle Tea: Traditional Support for Muscle Relaxation and Morning Ease
Nettle tea is another time-honored option rich in minerals like iron, calcium, and silica. People often turn to it when dealing with muscle cramps or that rigid feeling first thing in the morning, which can disrupt sleep and set a challenging tone for the day.
The frustration of nighttime cramps or stiffness that makes getting out of bed harder than it should be is something many experience. It can affect everything from mood to willingness to stay active. Nettle’s nutrient profile may help relax muscles and support overall comfort, according to traditional use and emerging research.
How to Prepare Nettle Tea
Use dried nettle leaves from a reputable source. Steep one tablespoon in a cup of hot water for 10 minutes, covered. Drink it warm in the morning on an empty stomach or before bed as part of your wind-down.
Limit use to cycles of up to three weeks followed by a break, and always listen to your body.
