Barley & Poria Cocos Tea

🌾 Job's Tears (Coix Seed)

The cornerstone of this blend. Used in TCM for thousands of years to help the body shed excess dampness and ease that heavy, bloated feeling. Job's Tears gently encourages the body's natural fluid balance — making it one of the most trusted herbs for that puffy, weighed-down sensation.

🌿 Cassia Seed

A staple in Traditional Chinese Medicine for digestive health. Cassia Seed gently supports healthy bowel movements and helps your system process and clear what's been lingering. Often paired with de-bloating formulas for its ability to encourage smooth, comfortable digestion.

🍄 Poria Cocos

A revered tonic mushroom at the heart of many classical TCM formulas. Poria Cocos is traditionally used to calm the mind, support the spleen, and help the body drain and transform excess dampness. Gentle, effective, and deeply balancing.

🍊 Aged Tangerine Peel (Chen Pi)

Prized in TCM for its ability to relieve bloating and support the movement of Qi through the digestive system. It lifts sluggish energy, eases after-meal discomfort, and gives the blend its warm, citrusy finish.

🌸 Hawthorn Berry

Bright and gently tart, hawthorn berry has been used for centuries to support digestion after heavy or oily meals. It helps ease that overfull, sluggish feeling and adds a pleasant fruity note that makes the whole blend enjoyable to drink.

Your digestion begins to wake up. You may notice a little more ease after meals — less of that tight, heavy sensation. The warm, toasty flavour with a hint of citrus becomes a quiet, grounding ritual.

The bloated, puffy feeling starts to ease noticeably. Your digestion feels calmer and more regular. Many customers report waking up feeling less swollen and more comfortable in their own skin.

The cumulative effect kicks in. Less of that heavy, weighed-down feeling throughout the day. Skin can start to look cleaner and more even. You simply feel more like yourself — the lighter version.

Is this tea safe for daily use?

Yes. All five herbs are food-grade botanicals used daily in Traditional Chinese Medicine for centuries. We recommend one cup per day for adults. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or on medication, please consult your doctor first.

Does this tea contain caffeine?

No — this blend is completely caffeine-free. It's safe to drink at any time of day, including evenings. Many customers enjoy it as a post-dinner digestive ritual.

What does it taste like?

Warm, toasty, and subtly earthy — with a gentle tartness from the hawthorn berry and a citrusy finish from the tangerine peel. Smooth and pleasant, with no harsh or bitter aftertaste.

How long does one box last?

Each box contains 15 tea bags — a 15-day supply when used once daily. For best results, we recommend keeping a continuous supply on hand so you don't break the streak.

Can I drink this if I don't know anything about TCM?

Absolutely. You don't need to know anything about Traditional Chinese Medicine to benefit from these herbs. The botanical compounds work the same way regardless of your background — they simply support your body's natural digestive and fluid-balancing processes.
