Supports Digestive Health
When steeped as a tea, Calendula is known to gently soothe the digestive tract, reduce inflammation, and support healthy digestion. It’s a go-to herb for herbalists looking to create blends for digestive balance. -

Calendula is often used in herbal practices to encourage lymphatic flow and reduce mild swelling, offering holistic support to the body’s natural detoxification process.
How Herbalists Use Calendula:
