About the Bundle

In Ayurveda, Ama is a traditional concept describing the residue of imperfect digestion, traditionally said to gradually coat the body's channels (Srotas), diminish Agni (digestive fire), and create a traditional experience of feeling burdened, heavy, and less vital. Ama is not a disease, but an Ayurvedic concept describing accumulated digestive and metabolic residue that is traditionally believed to obstruct the body's channels. In Ayurvedic tradition, clearing Ama is considered one of the most foundational wellness practices.

The Anti-Ama Tea & Honey Bundle pairs this traditional 16-herb decoction with raw Stingless Bee Honey, for those who prefer their daily practice lightly sweetened. Anti-Ama Tea is built around Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia, also known as "Amrita" in Ayurvedic tradition), a herb traditionally described in classical Ayurvedic texts as a Tridoshic Rasayana, surrounded by a supporting group of herbs traditionally classified as channel-opening (Srotas Shodhana), warming digestive herbs, and traditional Rakta Shodhana (blood-nourishing) herbs. The result is a warming, spicy, slightly bitter, aromatic decoction, traditionally sipped throughout the day.

The honey is raw, unprocessed multifloral honey harvested from stingless bees in the Luwu region of South Sulawesi, Indonesia, with a fresh, floral, tart flavour and a naturally complex, slightly bitter finish. It's included here as a natural way to soften the tea's own warming, slightly bitter character, or to enjoy on its own.

Benefits

Traditional Wellness Practice

  • Inspired by traditionally valued herbs used as part of the Ayurvedic practice of supporting the body's channels (Srotas Shodhana) and traditional Agni (digestive fire)
  • Inspired by traditionally valued herbs enjoyed as a warming, aromatic daily decoction as part of an Ayurvedic wellness routine
  • Inspired by traditionally valued herbs associated with a feeling of lightness and comfortable ease, in keeping with the traditional Ayurvedic concept of clearing Ama
  • Inspired by traditionally valued herbs favoured during seasonal Ayurvedic wellness routines, particularly in spring and autumn
  • Inspired by traditionally valued herbs associated with balancing Kapha dosha, the blend's warm, light, dry, and pungent herbs are traditionally considered opposite in quality to Kapha's traditional cold, heavy, damp qualities
  • Inspired by traditionally valued herbs enjoyed as a caffeine-free alternative within a daily beverage routine

Traditional Digestive Comfort

  • Inspired by traditionally valued herbs used in Ayurveda to support Agni and comfortable digestive ease, the blend's warming herbs (Ginger, Black Pepper, Ajwain, Galangal, Ajmoda) are traditional Agni-supporting ingredients
  • Inspired by traditionally valued herbs associated with comfortable post-meal ease
  • Inspired by traditionally valued herbs used to support a feeling of natural fluid comfort, Punarnava and Coriander-family herbs are traditionally used in Ayurveda in this context

A Natural, Wholesome Sweetener

  • Raw and unprocessed, Stingless Bee Honey retains its natural floral character and complexity, unlike heavily processed commercial honey
  • Naturally lower glycaemic index than many conventional honeys, making it a distinctive choice for those seeking less rapidly absorbed sweeteners.
  • Multifloral, reflecting the diverse native flora of the Luwu region, giving each batch a distinctive, complex flavour profile
  • A traditional natural sweetener that softens Anti-Ama Tea's characteristically warming, slightly bitter profile for those who prefer a gentler taste

Directions for Use

Standard decoction:

Add 1–3 teaspoons of Anti-Ama Tea to 1 litre of cold water in a saucepan. Bring to the boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer and cook for 15–20 minutes. Strain well and pour into a thermos to keep warm throughout the day.

Thermos method (simpler daily preparation):

Add 1–3 teaspoons to a thermos and fill with freshly boiled water. Seal and steep for 20–30 minutes. Strain.

Sweeten with honey:

Once the tea has cooled to a warm, comfortable drinking temperature (very hot liquid can affect raw honey's delicate flavour and natural qualities), stir in a small spoonful of Stingless Bee Honey to soften the tea's warming, slightly bitter character.

Throughout the day:

Sip the prepared decoction warm throughout the day, in place of regular water or tea, if desired.

Seasonal and programme use:

Traditionally used during seasonal Ayurvedic wellness periods, particularly spring and autumn. Some people use it consistently for 2–4 weeks as part of a seasonal wellness routine.

Honey on its own:

Enjoy Stingless Bee Honey directly by the spoonful, or stirred into other foods and drinks, separately from the tea.

Safety: Anti-Ama Tea contains Black Pepper, Ginger, and other warming spices, those with a sensitive digestive system may wish to start with a weaker preparation. Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding without practitioner guidance.
If you're currently taking anything prescribed by a doctor, or managing an ongoing health condition, it's a good idea to check with them first before adding this tea to your routine.

Honey is not recommended for infants under 12 months of age.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in the Anti-Ama Tea & Honey Bundle? +

The bundle includes Anti-Ama Tea (50g or 200g) and Stingless Bee Honey (200g or 400g).

What is Ama, and what does Anti-Ama Tea traditionally support? +

In Ayurveda, Ama refers to a traditional concept of undigested metabolic residue said to accumulate when digestive fire (Agni) is weak. Anti-Ama Tea is formulated with herbs traditionally classified as Deepana (digestive fire-kindling) and Pachana (Ama-digesting) to support this traditional Ayurvedic wellness practice.
This is a traditional wellness practice, not a clinical program.

Can I sweeten Anti-Ama Tea with the honey in this bundle? +

Yes, once the tea has cooled to a warm, comfortable drinking temperature, a small spoonful of Stingless Bee Honey softens the tea's characteristically warming, slightly bitter profile. Very hot liquid can affect raw honey's delicate flavour, so add it once the tea isn't piping hot.

How often should I drink Anti-Ama Tea? +

Ama-reducing practices are traditionally emphasised during seasonal transitions (particularly spring and autumn), often for 2–4 weeks as part of a seasonal Ayurvedic routine. Anti-Ama Tea can also be enjoyed as an ongoing daily tea as part of this approach.

Where does the Stingless Bee Honey come from? +

It's raw, multifloral honey harvested from stingless bees in the Luwu region of South Sulawesi, Indonesia, with a distinctive fresh, floral, tart flavour and a naturally complex finish.

Is this bundle safe to use alongside medication? +

Several herbs in Anti-Ama Tea, including Guduchi, Turmeric, and Black Pepper, may interact with certain medications. If you take prescription medication or have a diagnosed medical condition, consult your healthcare practitioner before use. If you have diabetes or another condition affecting blood sugar, also check with your healthcare practitioner regarding honey as part of your individual dietary plan.
