About the Blend

As the name suggests, this is your afternoon escape. Whether you have a proper break to enjoy this slowly or are able to spare only a few fleeting seconds, you can be rest assured that magic is happening.

Astragalus and Codonopsis are fantastic on their own, but when put together, become a giant among Chinese tonic formulations in helping to build a robust immune system. When the body is exposed to harmful pathogens, our white blood cells are activated to fight and eliminate the infection - Astragalus and Codonopsis promote the production of this army of immune cells. Subsequently, when the body is put on a defensive mode, it becomes “inflamed” and fatigued. These same roots help quell and manage inflammations to prevent further stresses on the body, thereby facilitating the body in its recovery process.

Other common stresses our body manages on a regular basis include toxins that are accumulated from the consumption of processed food and sugars, alcohol, medication, etc, that contributes to health issues such as fatty liver disease. A healthy liver helps to neutralise and rid of these toxins effectively. Red Dates, Goji Berries and Snow Chrysanthemum, are high in antioxidants, with the former two particularly effective in reducing the impact of oxidative stress in the liver. Red dates, in particular, provide amino acids, a building block of protein, which the liver needs for its daily functioning. See your skin start to glow as the body detoxifies itself with the help of a healthy liver!

Through The Day also offers digestive aid through Codonopsis and Marigold. Codonopsis helps to improve gut health as it contains prebiotics that induces the growth and activity of beneficial gut microorganisms, while Marigold helps to support a healthy gastric lining by reducing acid secretions. A most ideal mid-afternoon treat!

BLEND-SPECIFIC FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is Through The Day suitable for pregnant ladies?
  • Through The Day contains ingredients that you should avoid taking in large amounts during your early stages (first and second trimester) of pregnancy. Marigold is traditionally used to induce menstruation, and may stimulate the uterus upon over-consumption, and in the process early contractions. It would be recommended for expectant mothers in the early stages to limit consumption to 1-2 teabags a day.
  • More suitable blends would be Evening Calm and Perfect Pairing. For more information about how TILY can accompany your pregnancy journey, do check out our blog post here!
Is Through The Day suitable for consumption alongside medication?
  • If you are currently on medication, please consult your doctors before consuming our blends.
  • Astragalus, Goji Berries and its constituents have estrogenic properties and may interfere with the actions of anti-cancer hormonal-sensitive drugs such as Tamoxifen used for breast cancer treatment.
  • Astragalus has diuretic effects that may interfere with anti-hypertensive drugs (for high blood pressure).
  • Goji Berries may affect the blood sugar levels, hence one may need to monitor sugar levels closely if under diabetic drugs and treatment.
Is Through The Day suitable for surgery recovery?
  • Through The Day contains ingredients that may boost the effects of blood thinners and anticoagulants, increasing the risk of bruising and bleeding. Astragalus and Goji Berries may invigorate the blood and might possibly slow down the healing of wounds. Hence, we would recommend those who are recovering from surgery to consume Through The Day 2 weeks after the surgery procedure.
What is the recommended consumption for Through The Day?
  • Have a daily cup of Through The Day after your afternoon meal to give your gut and liver some support. You may also enjoy this blend with honey or sweetener of choice, to balance the taste of the root herbs in the tea.
  • Each teabag requires 5-8 minutes of steeping time for a good amount of infusion, and may be refilled 2 to 3 times.
