Today on the Internet you can see many advertisements for the sale of teas, the recipes of which are supposedly made by monks. One of them is monastery tea from Belarus, namely from St. Elizabeth's Monastery. Is the recipe for this collection really drawn up in the indicated monastery, does it help or is it another “scam”? We offer to understand this article.
Monastic tea for diabetes. Reviews
Probably, in this review you should start with reviews. The monastic tea for diabetes has various reviews, but first we’ll look at the positive ones. And they are found, as a rule, on sites selling this tea, while there is no way to identify the people who leave them. In the best case, the opportunity is given to write comments, and there are statements indicating the name and surname without coordinates by which you can contact these people. In the worst case, the information is simply entered by the owners of the site.
In many cases, monastic diabetes tea reviews are negative or uncertain. Moreover, some doctors have dedicated their blogs to this topic, where they are not very flattering about the collection.
Who sells Belarusian monastery tea?
Unfortunately, they could not find a manufacturer of this tea, although sellers claim that the nuns are collecting it. But more recently, on the first page of the site of the St. Elizabeth Monastery there was an announcement that he was not involved in teas that are sold as monastery tea. Minsk implements this collection, or rather, it is sold by the entrepreneurs of this city (just like in Russia and Ukraine several companies or private individuals), but, therefore, it is produced anywhere, but not in the monastery. Probably, it is worth believing the monks, God's people live modestly, and they are out of business.
Collection Studies
Why, at a time when diabetes is called the plague of the 20th century, such outstanding results were not reported anywhere? For advertising purposes, sellers write about studies that were supposedly carried out and yielded excellent results - out of 1000 people who participated, 87% stopped having diabetes attacks, though , no one explained what was meant specifically. After all, doctors do not talk about any diabetic attacks at all, probably because they do not exist in nature, and 42% have completely recovered from diabetes. There are several legitimate questions:
- Why is tea not adopted by doctors to combat this disease?
- Where are these results recorded, and who conducted the research?
History of tea according to sellers
Often on the websites of sellers there is an expression that the recipe for this collection is centuries old, well, no less than a hundred years old.
