Quick Answer
Steep one NutraBone tea sachet in 200ml of freshly boiled water (95°C) for 5–7 minutes. You can reuse the bag up to three times for a milder brew.
Why Steeping Method Matters for Joint Support
NutraBone tea contains Rose Hip, known to help maintain normal joint mobility, and Nettle to support overall bone health. The active compounds in herbs like Ginger, Turmeric, and Devil’s Claw are heat-sensitive. Using water that is too hot or steeping too briefly can reduce their effectiveness, while over-steeping may make the tea bitter without extracting more benefits.
Step-by-Step Steeping Instructions
- Step 1: Heat Water to 95°C: Bring fresh, filtered water to a rolling boil, then let it rest for 30 seconds. This cools it to about 95°C (203°F), the ideal temperature for NutraBone's herbal blend. Water that is still boiling (100°C) can scorch delicate herbs like Rose Hip and Ginger, reducing their joint-supporting properties. Use a thermometer or simply wait 30 seconds after boiling for accuracy.
- Step 2: Steep for 5–7 Minutes: Place one NutraBone tea sachet in a cup or teapot and pour the 95°C water over it. Cover with a saucer or lid to keep heat in. Steep for at least 5 minutes to extract key compounds, but no more than 7 minutes to avoid bitter notes from the Green Tea and Liquorice. Set a timer; steeping longer than 7 minutes does not increase joint support.
- Step 3: Reuse the Sachet Up to Three Times: After your first cup, remove the sachet and let it cool on a clean plate. You can reuse it for two more cups the same day. Each reuse will produce a slightly milder flavor, but the joint-supporting herbs will still release beneficial compounds. Do not reuse a sachet that has been sitting wet for more than 8 hours. Reusing the sachet reduces waste and cost—each bag costs about £0.30 per use when reused three times.
