Why Kunzea Relief Cacao?

Kunzea Relief Tea is designed for its calming and inflammation-reducing effects. When paired with traditional ingredients like ginger and cinnamon, plus antioxidant-rich cacao, it creates a soothing blend that helps maintain overall well-being.

Key Ingredients and Benefits

  • Kunzea Relief Tea: Known to reduce inflammation and ease discomfort. Blend made with wild-harvested Kunzea with native lemongrass and antioxidant-rich pepperberries.
  • Ginger: Contains powerful compounds such as 6-gingerol (fresh) and 6-shogaol (dried/heated), which have strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Dried ginger is particularly potent and also promotes healthy circulation, aiding nutrient delivery. Source
  • Cinnamon (True Cinnamon): Rich in cinnamaldehyde, which helps regulate blood sugar and reduce inflammation, key factors in managing chronic inflammation. Source
  • Cacao: Contains polyphenols and methylxanthines with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It may also support pain relief and boost mood via dopamine receptor interaction. Source
