1_ What are acerola cherries, and are they a natural source of vitamin C?

Acerola is a shrub native to tropical regions in the Caribbean. It produces a superfruit also known as acerola, acerola cherry, or “Barbados cherry.” Indigenous Amazonian tribes have consumed them since time immemorial for their positive effects on the body. These little red berries have a tangy flavor and are packed with vitamin C – between 30 and 40 times more than oranges!ens d’Amazonie.

 

 

2_ Why do you recommend following this vitamin C and green tea ritual?

Our wellness ritual is a natural solution that helps to meet our body’s needs without ever forgetting what matters most: Enjoying ourselves!

 

Sencha green tea has been renowned for its medicinal properties for thousands of years, and is considered to be one of the beverages with the highest antioxidant content. Meanwhile, acerola is a natural source of vitamin C, an essential nutrient that boosts our immune defenses. However, vitamin C is not naturally produced by the body and so must be consumed in the diet. This potential deficiency is the target of our wellness ritual, which contributes to the daily recommended amount of vitamin C with just one tea bag per day.

 

 

3_ Why should I complete a full 28-day ritual?

With any course of vitamins, you generally need to be patient! Four weeks appears to be the least amount of time needed for the body to fully assimilate the vitamin. You can of course repeat this vitamin C ritual as many times as you want! The key is sticking with it

And don’t forget, this ritual should be part of a healthy lifestyle and a well-balanced diet.

 

 

4_ Can I keep following this ritual throughout the year?

Of course! Vitamin C, found in acerola cherries, is highly recommended in winter because it supports our immune defenses. However, it also contributes to the healthy functioning of our bodies in general, and so can be beneficial all year round. Just like Sencha green tea, vitamin C is an antioxidant which helps to slow cell aging and damage. This can be particularly useful when we ask a lot of our bodies through intense physical activity, pollution, or sun exposure, for example. You can therefore follow this vitamin C ritual every day if you want to!

 

 

5_ is there a recommended time to drink this tea?

As our Sencha green tea leaves are fortified with vitamin C, we recommend making this ritual part of your morning routine. This way you will be ready to start the day! In the evening, we recommend herbal teas and blends such as rooibos. Take a look at our website; you’re sure to find something to suit you!

 

 

6_ How long do the tea bags last after opening the box?

The 28 tea bags in this vitamin C ritual are divided into 4 pouches to ensure they last for as long as possible. We advise keeping the pouches closed to avoid overly exposing the tea bags to the air. This will help to preserve the quality of the ingredients. With this in mind, we suggest opening one pouch per week – depending on how far along you are with your vitamin C ritual – and to consume 1 tea bag every day.

To ensure it lasts as long as possible, we recommend storing this product in a cool, dry place.

 

 

7_ Can I drink several tea bags per day?

There is no reason not to consume more than one tea bag per day. We recommend using at least one tea bag per day for 28 days to enable your body to assimilate the vitamin C, but you can drink more than one a day if you want.

 

 

8_ What happens if I forget one day?

Don’t panic! It won’t stop the ritual from working. You should see this vitamin and green tea ritual as a long-term ally. It will have the biggest impact on your well-being if you stick to it for at least the full 28 days.

 

 

9_ Can pregnant women follow this ritual?

As a tea manufacturer, we are unable to provide medical advice. We recommend that you discuss this with your doctor.

 

 

10_ Can this product be consumed alongside other courses of vitamins or medications?

If you have any doubts about how this well-being ritual will interact with other vitamins or medications, we advise speaking to your doctor.

 

 

11_ What is the difference between this ritual and a “traditional” course of vitamins?

The secret to our vitamin ritual is that it makes something healthy into a moment of total relaxation. What better than taking your daily tea-time break while meeting your body’s needs? Our ritual is a natural solution to contribute to your recommended daily amount of vitamin C thanks to the acerola cherries. Meanwhile, the Sencha green tea is packed with polyphenols, making it a great antioxidant. A delicious, organic blend in a fun format to make sure you always remember to enjoy yourself!
