Product Description:
Rio Health Quebra Pedra, 90 Teabags. From the Rio Amazon Collection. Rio Health Quebra Pedra (also known as Chanc Piedra) is a small, erect annual herb that grows up to 30 or 40cm in height - and is commonly known as 'the Stone Breaker'.
Quebra Pedra is indigenous to the rainforests of Brazil, and to other tropical areas including the Bahamas, Southern India and China. The herb is insignificant with small white flowers, and is frequently seen only as a weed. But is has a long history of use among indigenous peoples in all the areas where it is found. Quebra Pedra is available as a loose tea, and also in a more convenient form as teabags. Across the world the Quebra Pedra tea is by far the most common form of administration as it supports the flow of water through the system. However, in Europe the capsules of 'the Stone Breaker' are seen as a convenient alternative for people who are out of the house and unable to make up a tea.
Rio Health sources this small but powerful plant through a network of individual and experienced gatherers who have great expertise in the identification of medicinal herbs. The individual harvests are also positively identified in a botanical laboratory in the University of Sao Paulo, where levels of the actives are also checked.
Rio Health Qubra Pedra, from the Rio Amazon Collection is available from Revital in bottles of 90 Teabags.
