Boiling the leaves too aggressively until the tea becomes very bitter
Skipping the rinse and carrying dirt or residue into the cup
Expecting immediate results after one or two days
Using it as a replacement for prescribed medication
Ignoring diet, movement, and hydration while relying on tea alone
The reality is simple: plant support works best when the rest of the routine is supportive too. That means regular meals, enough water, and some movement each day.
