For centuries, this Mediterranean species has symbolized greatness, individuality and grand achievement. The spirit of the tree has also long been said to help make things work out for the best and provide insight into our lives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSymbols and spiritualism aside, bay laurel has also long been celebrated for its prowess in the physical wellness realm. For centuries, in parts of Southern Europe this hearty plant (which can grow up to 25 feet tall if left unpruned), has been chopped and brewed into a tea said to offer numerous benefits for the body. Among these, a cup of brewed bay laurel is said to soothe upset stomachs, relieve gas, and promote a healthy heart. According to food science, what gives bay laurel this ability is a powerful combination of potassium, antioxidants and iron. (Potassium is thought to play a vital role in maintaining cardiac rhythm and lowering blood pressure.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInterestingly, while many tisanes are typically enjoyed after dinner, bay laurel devotees recommend drinking this one before dinner. Why? Because the properties it contains are said to stimulate and support the digestive system. As such, quaffing down a cup 30 minutes or so in advance of a rich meal will get the body working before it needs to start digesting solid foods. If you make one grand achievement today, let it be that - a savory pre-dinner cup of bay laurel tea.
