The Miracle Tea from Hunza Valley You Need to Try!
Many people ask questions like: Is it good to drink tea? Which tea is best? How and when should I drink tea? So today, I am going to give you a recipe for a miracle tea called Hunzati. This tea is from the Hunza Valley in the mountains of Northern Pakistan. The Hunza people are quite healthy, and many are over 100 years old. Many diseases that we commonly see in cities do not affect them.One of the reasons for their robust health is, of course, their lifestyle choices. In the Hunza Valley, local people drink Hunzati every day, and when they feel ill or think they may get sick, they drink it twice a day. Since these people are so healthy and live long lives, this tea is becoming famous around the world.
