Butterfly Pea Organic Dried Flowers

Butterfly Pea flower (Clitoria Ternatea) has been used in Ayurveda as well as traditional Asian and Middle Eastern medicine for centuries. It’s full of antioxidants, including pro anthocyanidin (which supports skin collagen and elasticity) and anthocyanin (which supports hair and eye health). Both of these ingredients help promote the overall healthy life cycle of our cells.

Other benefits include:

• Anti-inflammatory – the deep blue flowers contain flavonoid pigments similar to blue berries, acai berry, mangosteen rind etc. that protect the plant.

• Aids diabetic activity by inhibiting glucose intake from diet.

• Noted anti-cancer and anti-tumor abilities resulting from cyclotides that cause cell death by disrupting cell membrane integrity.

• Anti-pyretic – reduces fever by dilating the blood vessels just beneath the skin which increases blood flow near the surface of the skin where it can be more easily cooled by the air.

• Loaded with antioxidants that helps boost circulation and collagen production and prevent premature ageing. It’s been used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine as a memory enhancer, a stress alleviator, to lift the mood, and it is believed to balance blood sugar levels.

• Strengthens the hair for healthy hair growth/preventing hair loss and greying.

• Detoxifies the whole body.

• Enhances memory.

• Enhances immune system.

Our organic Butterfly Pea flowers can be consumed as a flower tea/tisane, used for baking, cocktails and drinks as well as for bathing by sprinkling the flowers in a warm bath. Despite it looking as sweet as melted candy, Butterfly Pea has a natural earthy flavor to it that can be compared to a fine green tea. The flowers also won’t stain your skin, clothes, glassware or your bath.
