Cuban Pepperleaf “Caisimon De Anis” Tea 20g

Natural and traditional medicine offers many options to combat this bothersome ailment, but Piper auritum , also known as aniseed or aniseed, is an ingredient that can be used at home. Its use will surely help relieve joint pain and take care of your health… naturally! Although toxicological studies on the plant have shown that its consumption is generally safe, prolonged use of the leaves is known to cause skin irritation, so this is something to consider when using it externally. Specifically in the case of pregnant women, this species can cause miscarriages when ingested orally, and it is important to be aware of this. Caisimón de Anís (scientific name: Piper auritum) is very commonly used to make tea, though it is technically an infusion of the plant’s leaves. In Latin American folk medicine—especially in Cuba, where your product appears to be from—this plant is highly valued for its aromatic, licorice-like scent and its medicinal properties. Caisimón de Anís is widely used, it contains a compound called safrole. In very high concentrations or with long-term excessive use, safrole can be toxic. It is best enjoyed in moderation (1–2 cups a day) rather than as a permanent replacement for water. If you are pregnant or nursing, it’s always wise to check with a doctor before starting new herbal remedies.
