Another liver herbal tea is: * Fennel Seed (1 part), Fenugreek (1 part) * Flax Seed (1 part), Licorice Root (1/4 part) * Burdock (1/4 part), Peppermint (1 part).

Preparing the tea Boil 1 1/4 cup of distilled water in a glass container. Add 1 heaping tablespoon of herbal mixture. Let tea sit for 10-15 minutes. Strain and drink when it cools down a little.
