Bursting with tropical fruits, Get Up & Glow gives you a zingy natural boost with no added nasties...
We only use whole leaf, natural ingredients to ensure that you get the full flavour and goodness of the fruits and flowers.
Our whole leaf, plastic free, biodegradable tea bags are plant based and release fewer tannins into a brew, ensuring it is gently uplifting and smooth.
Grapes are used as the base of this tea blend. This means that along with vitamin C, you also get a gentle natural sugar lift. It's the perfect way to replicate caffeine in the healthiest way possible.
Crafted for pregnancy and beyond - you can enjoy this blend whether you're pregnant, breastfeeding or simply caffeine conscious and reducing your caffeine intake.
There's no time of life where a cup of Get Up & Glow isn't a good idea!
Totally tropical – perfectly balanced sweetness and tartness
We don’t recommend adding milk or sugar, but follow your cravings and personal taste!
Is hibiscus safe in pregnancy?
The short answer is yes - the NHS has no issues with hibiscus in pregnancy, but recommends not drinking more than 3 cups a day.
Google might terrify you and say that it's dangerous. But this is based on an animal study, where mice were given a huge quantity and had problems. This sounds scary, but bear in mind - the mice are given 1g of hibiscus per kg weight.
This is the equivalent of a woman weighing 60kg eating 60g of hibiscus a day. One of our Get Up & Glow tea bags weighs 2.5g and has 10% hibiscus in (0.25g). You will only get around 60% of the polyphenols in the tea bag in an infusion, so per bag, 0.15g max is extracted. You'd therefore need to drink 400,000 cups a day to have the same dose and risk a similar effect (even if our bodies are different).
Study summary here: https://www.contraceptionjournal.org/article/0010-7824(86)90061-2/fulltext. So providing you don’t reach this level of hibiscus in your diet, you can definitely continue to enjoy the tea.
