A few years ago I began drinking green, white, and herbal teas to assist with weight loss and to aid with digestion. I found that drinking green and herbals teas throughout the day helped me stay calm and clear-headed, and gave me the energy my body needed. Numerous studies have demonstrated the important health benefits of drinking tea. Some teas have been found to help in lowering the risks of some cancers and heart disease. Green and white teas are useful in weight management and provide numerous health benefits, while herbal teas are particularly favoured for their cleansing and calming properties.

I recently tried Strauss Herbal Teas. The company was kind enough to send us samples of their herbal teas, including Chamomile, Herbal Blueberry, and Peppermint Tea (they also sent us Chai and Early Grey, which I LOVED but I’ll save my review for another blog).

As soon as I opened the package, the wonderfully earthy aroma filled the air. I thought the Peppermint and Chamomile teas were both excellent. These teas are fantastic for relieving stress and as an aid in digestion (particularly Peppermint tea). I like to drink these teas in the evening a few hours before bed. My favourite from the bunch was the Herbal Blueberry, which contains white tea, rosehip, hibiscus flower (good for reducing high blood pressure), licorice root and naturally blueberry flavours).

Strauss Herbal Teas uses only natural ingredients and the quality is excellent. I can’t wait to try their Jasmine Green Tea, Mandarin Green Tea, and their Pear Green Tea.

We recently finished adding a great new line of products to hpn.TO in Burt’s Bees. Burt’s Bees was founded in 1984 and as their name hints, makes products using honey and beeswax.

Burt’s Bees is an “Earth Friendly, Natural Personal Care Company.” We create natural, Earth-friendly personal care products formulated to help you maximize your well-being and that of the world around you.

To make certain that all our products meet the highest standards, as well as our dedication to ensuring The Greater Good, our products are carefully crafted from time-tested, proven recipes using ingredients that are the best nature has to offer: beeswax, botanical and essential oils, herbs, flowers and minerals. These safe, effective ingredients have withstood the test of time.

With Burt’s Bees, what you see is what you get. To us, the word “natural” means only one thing. It means “harvested from nature.” And that is what we are.

We believe truly natural products are better for your body and the environment. Because of this, there are ingredients that you will never find in any Burt’s Bees products. And of course, we will never conduct product or ingredient tests of any kind on animals.

You can see all Burt’s Bees products on hpn.TO here.

We just finished adding another great Canadian company in Ddrops to hpn.TO.

At Ddrops Company, we are passionate about Vitamin D! Ddrops Company is 100% Canadian owned and operated and was founded in response to a need for a simply better way to provide the one vitamin that is most often deficient in Canadians and Americans – Vitamin D. Our research and development is geared toward developing and marketing safe, effective, convenient and economical forms of vitamin D supplements under the Ddrops brand. Our mission is to spread a little sunshine vitamin one drop at a time.

You can view all of Ddrops products here. If you have any questions or comments please let us know.

Here at hpn.TO we view search as a critical factor to a positive customer experience. With that in mind, we began implementing a series of changes, that we hope, will make the task of finding great products on hpn.TO easier. The first release of the new search engine is now live, with more updates coming soon. If you have any suggestions on how we can make hpn.TO better, please don’t hesitate to let us know.
