Java Tea

Why You Need It

• Kidney & Bladder Health: Helps prevent and dissolve kidney stones.
• Natural Detoxification: Flushes out excess water and toxins via urine.
• Blood Sugar Balance: May help lower blood glucose levels.
• Gout Relief: Reduces uric acid buildup in joints.

Deep Dive

Java Tea is rich in potassium salts and orthosiphonin, compounds that stimulate the kidneys to produce more urine (diuresis). Unlike synthetic diuretics that can strip your body of potassium, Java Tea actually replenishes it, making it much safer for long-term use.

For those struggling with kidney stones, the herb increases urine acidity slightly, which helps dissolve calcium-based stones and prevents them from growing larger. Regarding metabolic health, studies suggest that Java Tea improves insulin sensitivity, helping your cells utilize glucose more effectively rather than leaving it circulating in your blood. It is also a potent antioxidant, fighting oxidative stress that contributes to aging and chronic disease.

Natural Food Sources

Java Tea is an herbal supplement, not a nutrient found in standard foods like Vitamin C in oranges. However, to support the kidney-cleansing benefits of Java Tea, you should increase your intake of natural diuretic foods alongside it.

Top Foods to Support Urinary Health:

Supplementation

Dosage:

• Tea: Steep 1-2 teaspoons of dried Java Tea leaves in hot water for 5-10 minutes. Drink 2-3 times daily.

Who should take it?

• Individuals prone to kidney stones or urinary tract infections (UTIs).
• Those with mild fluid retention (edema).

When to take it: Best taken in the morning and early afternoon due to its diuretic effect. Avoid taking it right before bed to prevent waking up for the bathroom.
