About Us
Capturing traditional tea benefits, presented in delicious, easy to prepare tea bags
When you think of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), do you conjure up images of a black, bitter boiling pot of liquid that Grandma insisted was "good for you"?
We used to think the same way.
However, TCM offers so much more than that, having been practiced for over 2,500 years, simply because it works.
Unfortunately, it still suffers from an antiquated, unscientific image when compared to newer Western medicine.
We don't want anyone to miss out on the benefits of TCM just because of this misconception.
That's why we founded TeaCM: to make traditional herbal tea accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
Each of our tea bags is meticulously crafted, packed with nutrients, and bursting with flavor, retaining the goodness without the bitterness.
We have a tea bag for you - whether to cure a cold or improve your overall health and immunity.
We also believe in educating people about the many aspects of TCM that goes beyond simply drinking tea.
Our aim is to help more people discover and understand the potential benefits of this ancient and constantly evolving medical discipline.
Join us on a journey to a healthier, more meaningful life.

The Science behind TCHM
Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine (TCHM) is based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which views the body as a whole and seeks to balance the flow of Qi, or vital energy, to restore health and prevent disease.
The science behind TCHM entails identifying and comprehending the active chemical constituents
found in herbs, as well as how they interact with the body to produce therapeutic effects.
Herbs used in TCHM contain a wide range of chemical compounds, including alkaloids, flavonoids, and terpenoids, all of which have different physiological effects on the body.
TCM practitioners use formulas, which are specific combinations of herbs, to create a customized treatment plan tailored to an individual's specific needs and health goals.
The herbs used in TCHM can be taken in various forms, such as teas.
TCH tea is a traditional and widely used method of delivering herbal remedies. The herbs are boiled in water to extract their active constituents and create a liquid infusion that can be consumed as a tea.
To facilitate the extraction process, the herbs are frequently dried or chopped into small pieces, then boiled in water for a set amount of time ranging from 20 minutes to several hours, depending on the formula.
How does TeaCM come in?
While boiling herbs for TCHM is a common and effective method of preparation, it can be time-consuming and requires a certain level of knowledge and expertise.
This can be a barrier for some people, as they may find it challenging or inconvenient to prepare TCHM teas at home.
As a result, many people may avoid using TCHM because of the perceived time commitment required for boiling the herbs.
However, with advancements in technology, it is now possible to grind TCHM herbs into a fine powder, which allows for significantly shorter preparation time than traditional boiling or soaking methods.
TeaCM tea bags, can be added directly to hot water and consumed within 10 minutes, making it a much more convenient option for people with busy schedules or limited time.
This significantly reduced the time required to prepare TCHM teas and made it a more
accessible option for people with busy lifestyles or those who find traditional preparation methods time-consuming.
We believe that with our efforts, TeaCM can be a convenient and effective way to support overall health and wellness, while reducing the time commitment associated with traditional preparation methods.
