Guest guest Posted May 15, 2001 Report Share Posted May 15, 2001 Valerie, We love the Liver Tea - one of our favorite herb teas that we drink just because we like it. 17 different fresh herbs - yum! Guess it's all in the taste buds! Maybe a weak Liver Tea with honey would be acceptable to a 4 year old or put it in apple juice??? Many of our friends give small children Total Nutrition and to get away from the green look they put it in grape juice. Just some ideas.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2001 Report Share Posted May 21, 2001 (laugh), Sorry kiddo but just because you have an aversion to the taste doesn't means everyone does. I actually enjoy the tea and drink it for pleasure. If you want to taste guargantuan gag, try the "Blood Detox" tea with the poke root and the chaparral. Now there's a rip snorter ;o) What I've noticed with all my cancer patients and for those with Liver Problems, is that they seem to have a greater aversion to the taste of the above two teas than those who don't have those conditions. Seems to go with the territory. As far as age is concerned, I'd even give it to a one or two year old (watered down of course) if it was called for. Much better than an operation (now there's radical for you). Love, Doc Ian "Doc" Shillington N.D.505-772-5889Dr.IanShillington Ian, no! Not for a 4 year old kid!
