Luo Han Guo Chrysanthemum Tea

Luo Han Guo Chrysanthemum Tea is made from three ingredients: Luo Han Guo (monk fruit), goji berries, and chrysanthemum flowers. Each ingredient offers unique health benefits:


Luo Han Guo (Monk Fruit): This fruit helps clear heat, soothe the lungs, relieve cough, dissolve phlegm, and promote bowel movements. It is particularly effective for soothing the lungs and relieving cough.

Goji Berries: Known for their ability to nourish the liver and improve vision, goji berries also help replenish blood, calm the mind, and enhance kidney function. They boost the immune system and are beneficial for symptoms like dizziness, fatigue, and weakness in the lower back and knees.

Chrysanthemum Flowers: These flowers have detoxifying properties and help reduce fever, alleviate symptoms of the common cold, and relieve eye strain and redness.


Although each ingredient has its own distinct benefits, when combined into a tea, they work together to clear heat, detoxify, nourish the liver, improve vision, and moisturize dryness. The tea has a sweet and refreshing taste, and drinking it for several days can help reduce internal heat, making it especially suitable for people who stay up late and experience heat-related symptoms.
