HEALTH BENEFITS OF MARIGOLD (CALENDULA) TEA
Extremely good for Reflux
The dried flower heads contain volatile oil, mucilage and flavonoids, and herbalists use them to treat digestive disorders like reflux. Marigold is a vulverary, an herb that heals internal or external ulcers and lesions. Herbalists advise using marigold for reflux because it has an anti-inflammatory effect on the digestive system and may help heal any ulcerations caused by acid reflux.
High Antioxidant Content
Marigolds contain numerous antioxidant carotenoids that give the petals their bright orange and yellow colors, protecting cells from free-radical damage. Free radicals are the by-products of normal body functions or environmental factors such as cigarette smoke or pollution, and can damage cells to the point that they damage DNA, leading to disease and various forms of cancer.
A high intake of antioxidants helps combat free radical damage. The primary carotenoids in marigolds are lutein and zeaxanthin, often paired together, and lycopene. Lutein and zeaxanthin are the only antioxidants that are found in the retina of the eye, where they protect the eye from the development of cataracts and macular degeneration. Lycopene is also reported to reduce the risk of prostate cancer and heart disease.
Cancer Protection
The antioxidants in marigolds help fight and prevent cancer. Researchers examined the effects of lutein, an antioxidant extracted from marigolds, on breast cancer tumors. The results of their study show that lutein not only reduced the number of tumors in the breast, it also prevented new cancer cells from developing. It was found that even in small dietary amounts, the lutein from marigolds had a positive effect. Marigold has also been found effective against leukemia, colon and melanoma cancer cells.
Wound Healing
Marigold flowers promote the growth of new skin tissue and blood vessels that carry nutrients to the skin. It contains astriterpenes, an anti-inflammatory to promote healthy, beautiful skin,.

A great tea for reflux problems. I bought this for my reflux at the recommendation of the sales staff (was still skeptical but since it was affordable decided to give it a try) but surprisingly this really works and more points for having a lovely floral taste.

My mum drinks this for her mild cataract, seems under control so far. Have been buying this for her and it is very fresh. Its hard to find such fresh ones that have a nice color (not pale and limp looking)

I drink this as a tea and sometimes use it in my tong shuis (chinese dessert soup). I add it in and leave it to bloom for 2 min just before serving, very pretty!
