1 oz - Organic Hibiscus Flower

Hibiscus is a genus of several hundred species in the mallow family that are native to tropical regions throughout Europe, Africa and Asia. This species is commonly called roselle in many parts of the world, but is also known as sorrel in the Caribbean and as Flor de Jamaica in Mexico.

The large, showy blooms are a vibrant color on the stem and retain their color when dried. Alone or in combination with other dried herbs, flowers and spices, hibiscus flowers make colorful and flavorful teas.

ALLERGEN: Hibiscus may be intercropped with peanuts. Occasionally, fragments of peanut shells may be present.

Considerations & Safety:

• Blood Pressure: Since hibiscus is known to lower blood pressure, individuals with low blood pressure (hypotension) should be cautious when using hibiscus. If you're on medication for blood pressure or have a history of low blood pressure, it is best to consult a healthcare provider before taking hibiscus.

• Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Hibiscus may have uterine-stimulating effects, so pregnant women should avoid taking hibiscus in large amounts, as it may increase the risk of miscarriage or preterm labor. It’s best to consult a healthcare provider during pregnancy or breastfeeding before using hibiscus supplements or teas.

• Medications: Hibiscus may interact with certain medications, especially blood pressure medications, diuretics, and diabetes medications. Always consult with a healthcare provider if you are on medication, particularly for heart conditions, diabetes, or blood pressure regulation.

• Allergic Reactions: Although rare, some individuals may have an allergic reaction to hibiscus. Symptoms could include rashes, itching, or difficulty breathing. If you notice any signs of an allergic reaction, discontinue use and seek medical attention.
