Time for a Healthy Cuppa As we grow older many of us look to more healthy beverages to drink than the caffeine rich tea and coffee and the aerated water drinks with high levels of sugar. Dandelion beverages have been used for centuries in cases of water retention, and as an aid to digestion, and Dandelion is very suitable caffeine free herbal beverage for those wishing to fi nd a suitable, healthy, benefi cial drink to ensure they keep their water intake high. SYMINGTON'S INSTANT DANDELION HERBAL TEA is an instant granulated form of Roasted Dandelion root which has a very pleasant taste, is quick to prepare and does not require the long boiling of the roasted root. Conventional roasted root requires 10-15 minutes of percolation to extract the valuable soluble solids of Dandelion root while Symington's Instant has been already prepared using specially cultivated dandelion root which is organically grown without chemicals and fertilisers. It is air dried, and roasted in the conventional way and extracted without chemicals using traditional methods of percolation without preservatives or additives so retaining its natural values. Symington's Dandelion is a perfect drink before bed or during the day when you crave that cup of tea or coffee as it takes no longer to prepare than a normal cup of instant coffee or dunking the teabag in hot water. Many drink it without extra added sugar or milk, and soya or rice milk can be used so reducing fat and eliminating dairy for the lactose intolerant. It is vegetarian and vegan and made from non gluten containing raw materials. Symington's Dandelion the most cost effective version of Dandelion beverages compared to tea bags of roasted root which often contain chicory so reducing dandelion strength and for which it is not possible to fully extract all the benefi cial soluble solids in the hot water of a tea cup. A percentage of the valuble ingredients are thrown away in the tea bag. With Symington's Dandelion all the granules completely dissolve giving a higher strength cup and therefore a greater benefi cial effect. Symington's Dandelion is packed in sealed coffee style containers in 100 grm, 250 grm, 500 grm, which are easy to open and a single serve sachet which will be available soon, which gives a high moisture barrier and retention of the Dandelion aroma. Symington's Dandelion has been sold in Australia for nearly 50 years by a well established local Australian family business E.C Choate & Co Pty Ltd which recently was renamed Kintra Foods Pty Ltd but still retains its strong focus on supplying high quality healthy food products to the Australian market. Symington's Dandelion is readily available from the major supermarkets and health food stores. 140 THE RETIREE SUMMER
