Its chemical composition is characterized by high concentrations of: Flavonoids (apigenin, luteolin, isoscutellarein) Phenolic acids Essential oils (carvacrol, thymol, geraniol) Diterpenes with strong biological activity Research (e.g., Eleftheria H. Kaparakou et al, 2013) shows that Sideritis species have an excellent antioxidant and antimicrobial profile, while contributing significantly to neuroprotection and general immune function. In addition, Sideritis species are used in traditional medicine to prevent age-related problems such as memory loss. Antioxidant Properties Aegean Organics mountain tea in tea bags are one of the strongest antioxidant species of the genus. Its phenolic compounds neutralize free radicals and protect cells from oxidative damage. According to laboratory studies, Sideritis extracts have a high capacity to bind oxidative molecules. How this property helps humans   Antioxidant activity contributes to: Protection of the immune system Reduction of inflammation Improvement of nervous system function Anti-aging at the cellular level Supporting cardiovascular health In addition, mountain tea is traditionally believed to aid in the natural detoxification of the body and to enhance memory. What is responsible for this property?   Its properties are attributed to its unique chemical composition. Its high flavonoid and essential oil content acts synergistically: Flavonoids offer powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant protection Essential oils have antimicrobial activity Diterpenes enhance metabolism and cellular well-being Use as a seasoning in cooking Although not so common, mountain tea in tea bags can be used in cooking to: Flavoring white meats – Using the bag helps to retain the tea and prevents it from dispersing into the wine Enhancing the flavor of oil-based dishes and soups by dipping the bag into the solution you want to flavor Adding to aromatic herb mixtures – Remove the product from the bag Preparing gourmet drinks with lemon, honey, or rosemary – dip the bag into the solution you want to flavor For smoking meat, choose Organic Mountain Tea Sideritis sipylea Lemnos 20g or remove the product from the sachet before use. Use as a medicinal herb & tea   Traditionally, mountain tea is used for: Relief from colds Supporting respiratory function Relaxation and stress reduction Supporting the nervous system Enhancing memory and concentration Stomach disorders and indigestion How to prepare tea correctly? (see the Recipes article)   To extract its bioactive substances correctly: Boil fresh water and leave it for 1 minute to cool down (~90°C). Fresh water contains a higher concentration of dissolved oxygen, which contributes to the final taste of the tea. Add 1 tea bag per 350 ml of water. Leave for only 2–3 minutes. Prolonged extraction will have negative effects as tannins and phenolic acids will be extracted, resulting in less aroma and more bitterness. Strain immediately and add honey, lemon, or another sweetener if desired. To maximize antioxidant retention, avoid boiling according to studies, infusion in hot but not boiling water better protects essential oils. As the product in the sachet has been crushed, its hydrolysis is easy and quick and does not need to be boiled.
