Healing Leaves
Biblically inspired leaves, seven years in the making, now part of my daily routine.
For the past 20 months, Healing Leaves™ has been part of my daily routine. Long before it had a name or was available to purchase, my friend Jordan Rubin, founder of Garden of Life and co-founder of Ancient Nutrition, sent me these leaves. I started brewing them as a tea and have continued drinking a cup almost every day since.
The idea behind Healing Leaves™ was inspired in part by Revelation 22:2: "the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations." That verse eventually led to a seven-year project involving the planting of nearly one million fruit trees and the development of the blend available today.
Why the Leaves?
We usually pay attention to the fruit of a plant, but there is a lot happening inside the leaves. Plants produce natural compounds that help them grow, protect themselves, and respond to their environment. These include polyphenols and other phytonutrients that researchers continue to study for their roles in normal cellular function, oxidative balance, metabolism, and other areas of human health.
That science is part of what interested me. Healing Leaves™ isn't something I view as a treatment for cancer or any other disease. It's a way for me to incorporate a variety of plant compounds into something as simple as a daily cup of tea.
Jordan was also one of the first people I called after my diagnosis, and these leaves became one of the things I continued using throughout my journey. I don't credit any single food, supplement, or therapy for my outcome, but I do believe the things we consistently put into our bodies matter. Healing Leaves™ has been one of those daily choices for me.
