PEOPLE
The "Compendium of Materia Medica" is a classic that embodies the profound wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine. 7eaminds takes this as its foundation and is committed to integrating traditional herbal knowledge with modern technology to provide personalized health solutions for people.There are no clinical trials and no evidence-based proof regarding their safety for ordinary people . They have been considered to be safe and so used for many years. However, most herbal teas should be avoided during pregnancy. Raspberry leaf, peppermint, ginger, and lemon balm tea are the only ones currently deemed as potentially safe.
The commended consumption is to be limited to two cups per day during pregnancy. Commonly used herbs during pregnancy were known to be raspberry, fennel, peppermint, ginger,Jujube, thyme, chamomile, sage and green tea.
Avoid parsley tea and sage during pregnancy. If you drink large amounts, it may increase your chance of miscarriage and affect how your baby develops.
What we offer
"Compendium of Materia Medica " tells us that pregnant women can drink some herbal tea in moderation, which can have a health effect. However, according to 7eaminds‘ research, some herbal teas are not suitable for pregnant women to drink. For example, rose tea can alleviate symptoms such as menstrual disorders and dysmenorrhea, but drinking rose tea that promotes blood circulation and dispels blood stasis may lead to miscarriage. So before drinking herbal tea, it is necessary to choose carefully based on one’s own physical condition.
"Compendium of Materia Medica" advises that the elderly should consider their personal constitution and health status when choosing herbal teas, prioritizing mild and nourishing types such as black tea and red tea to help replenish qi and blood, moisten the lungs and stomach; avoiding overly cold or strongly stimulating teas, such as green tea, to prevent harm to the spleen and stomach; also paying attention to the temperature and timing of tea consumption, avoiding drinking on an empty stomach or before bed to prevent affecting sleep and digestion. Furthermore, for the elderly who are taking medication, it is important to consult a doctor to avoid adverse interactions between herbal teas and medications.
What we offer
The study of 7eaminds suggests:
- Not drinking in large quantities
Although herbal teas have many health benefits, they should not be consumed in large quantities, as excessive intake may lead to impaired nutrient absorption, increased cardiovascular burden, increased gastrointestinal irritation, sleep and psychological problems caused by excessive caffeine, and potential side effects. Therefore, it is safer to drink in moderation.
- Not drinking before bedtime
Some herbal teas have a refreshing, stimulating, and diuretic effect. Many elderly people may have sleep disorders, so try not to drink at night to avoid excitement, insomnia, polyuria, and affect sleep quality. However some herbals, such as Chamomile, Lavender,Jujube Seed,Poria may help with sleep and sedation.
- Taking medication without drinking
Tannins and theophylline in some herbal teas can react chemically with certain drugs, especially for elderly people who take hypnotic and sedative drugs, as well as iron and blood supplements, enzyme preparations, protein containing drugs, etc. It is not advisable to use tea water to deliver drugs, so as not to affect the efficacy.
SAFETY
7eaminds draws on the herbal formulas from the "Compendium of Materia Medica" while focusing on product safety and the health needs of modern people.Peppermint tea and spearmint tea are two to consume with care if you have acid reflux. While they both come loaded with soothing properties for the digestive system, drinking too much can trigger your condition. Also, skip out on the sugar and lemons when prepping your herbal tea as these too can heighten acidity.
What we offer
For individuals who are prone to excess stomach acid, 7eaminds advises to avoid herbal teas that may stimulate the secretion of stomach acid, such as mint, ginger, and certain types of citrus herbs, as these ingredients could exacerbate symptoms of excess acid. Instead, one could opt for herbs that help neutralize stomach acid or provide a protective effect on the gastric mucosa, like licorice, Fritillaria cirrhosa, and Poria cocos.
Some herbal teas block a certain hormone in your body that keeps your blood vessels open so your blood can pass through easily. This can increase your blood pressure temporarily, but there is no sufficient evidence that it will increase your blood pressure in the long term.
What we offer
"Compendium of Materia Medica" suggests that some herbal teas have a certain antihypertensive effect on patients with mild hypertension. There are many herbaceous plants in nature that have the effect of reducing blood pressure, such as chrysanthemums. The effective ingredients in these herbs can play a certain role in relaxing blood vessels and lowering blood pressure. Therefore, moderate consumption of some suitable herbal tea can help improve mild blood pressure elevation. But for severe hypertension or other complications, 7eaminds suggest it is necessary to use standardized drugs for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
Herbal tea is made with different kinds of fruits, spices and herbs. If your herbal tea is packed with fruit, the sugars in the fruit could break your fast. Some good options of herbal teas that won’t break your fast are single-ingredient herbal teas, like peppermint tea, chamomile tea, or ginger tea or mix tea without sugars or fruit.
What we offer
"Compendium of Materia Medica" suggests that during fasting, we can generally drink tea and avoid using any additives. We should choose natural, unadded tea, such as white tea, green tea, and some fresh herbal teas, such as mint, fig, rose, lemon, chamomile, etc. However, we should also avoid drinking rich tea and avoid excessive consumption, which may have an impact on our digestive system.
Almost all herbal teas are Caffeine-Free. Herbal “tea” is not technically tea. Instead, the more appropriate name for an herbal tea is a “tisane” or “infusion.” Herbal teas are made from any combination of citrus or berry fruits, herbs, and spices and are naturally caffeine-free.
What we offer
7eaminds recommends that while traditional teas like black, green, white, and oolong contain caffeine that could potentially impact your hydration levels, most herbal teas are caffeine-free and are widely recognized for their hydrating properties, with only a few exceptions.

What we offer
In the "Compendium of Materia Medica," there is no direct list of herbs that can cause constipation, 7eaminds recommends when consuming herbal teas, one should consider personal physical condition and the nature of the herbs, drink in moderation.
Herbs with a strong purgative effect, such as rhubarb, can cause diarrhea if not used properly. Additionally, some herbs with heat-clearing and dampness-reducing properties may induce diarrhea in individuals with a cold constitution. Therefore, when consuming herbal teas, one should consider personal physical condition and the nature of the herbs, drink in moderation, and use them under the guidance of a professional doctor.
What we offer
The misuse of herbal plants can result in diarrhea and harm your health. 7eaminds is dedicated to helping you mitigate these risks, prioritize your well-being, and select herbal plants that are appropriate for your physical condition. For instance, we advise against using herbs like senna, which can significantly affect gastrointestinal function. Moreover, 7eaminds will offer you the most reasonable dosage recommendations to ensure safety and efficacy.
Herbal teas can indeed have diuretic effects. Certain herbal teas are considered diuretics due to their natural components. For instance, teas made from plants like nettle, parsley, and dandelion are believed to increase urine output and thus have diuretic effects. Additionally, common teas such as black and green tea contain caffeine, which is a known diuretic.
What we offer
Therefore, if you're seeking a diuretic beverage, herbal teas can be a viable choice. 7eaminds advises moderation in consumption to prevent dehydration or electrolyte imbalances. Additionally, if you're on other diuretic medications, consulting a doctor is essential due to potential interactions with herbal teas that could either amplify or diminish the effects of your drugs. Hibiscus, rose, or chamomile teas are excellent caffeine-free options that are likely to have milder diuretic effects.
Tisanes are generally considered a low-risk beverage for causing gas or bloating. However, certain types of tisane, such as those with ingredients known to cause gas in some individuals, might be worth avoiding if you’re prone to digestive discomfort.

Herbal teas which contain single herbs (like a mint tea) or a blend of multiple herbs—are popular options, and usually don’t have any effect on headaches.
What we offer
7eaminds advocates for a balanced approach to herbal tea consumption. Drinking herbal tea in moderation can offer a range of benefits, from easing emotions and alleviating headaches to aiding digestion, moistening the intestines, promoting bowel movements, and enhancing sleep quality. However, overconsumption of herbal tea may lead to sensitivities to tea polyphenols or theophylline, potentially causing gastrointestinal discomfort, palpitations, dizziness, headaches, insomnia, anxiety, allergic reactions, and other symptoms.

PROPERTIES
7eaminds focuses on exploring and applying these herbal characteristics, using modern technology to refine and innovate, providing health and well-being for people.Tisanes like Chamomile Tea, Mint Tea and Fennel Teas are very close to neutral, ranging between 6-7 on the pH scale, while Fruit Teas like Blackberry and Rosehip are very acidic, ranging between 2-3 on the pH scale.
According to search results, most herbal teas (tisanes) are alkaline and have a relatively high pH value. A study published in the "Oral Health and Dental Management" journal indicates that the pH level of herbal teas is significantly higher than that of fruit teas, and most herbal teas are alkaline. For instance, the pH of fennel tea ranges from 6.7 to 7.1, the pH of mint tea ranges from 6.6 to 7.2, and the pH of chamomile tea ranges from 6.5 to 7.0. These pH values are all above 7, indicating that they are alkaline. Therefore, it can be concluded that herbal teas (tisanes) are generally alkaline.
Throughout its long history, the "Compendium of Materia Medica" has demonstrated that certain teas possess the power to enhance the immune system, combat inflammation, support cardiovascular health, and may even help prevent the onset of certain cancers. These myriad health benefits are linked to the presence of specific antioxidants in tea, known as polyphenols, which contribute to the tea's therapeutic properties.
Many of the adverse effects associated with tisane stem from its interactions with medications. For instance, combining blood thinners or aspirin with certain herbal teas can lead to liver and kidney damage.
What We Offer
7eaminds provides herbs in their purest form—either as liquid or crystalline extracts—that are completely soluble in water and free from contaminants.
Although called "tea," tisanes are distinct from traditional tea as they typically do not contain tea plant leaves or leaf buds. Instead, they are tisanes, which are infusions of dried fruits, flowers, spices, or herbs in water, and have been shown to possess medicinal properties.
Generally, when your health is stable, moderate consumption of herbal tea can offer numerous benefits; however, excessive intake of any beverage can lead to adverse effects.
