Greek Mountain Tea
Mountain tea comes from the plant Sideritis or otherwise the iron of Dioscorides, which was named after the Greek word "iron" thanks to the healing effect of the plant against wounds caused by iron weapons. It grows in rocky places at high altitudes.
The genus Sideritis includes a variety of plant species (more than 150 species), which usually have yellow small flowers. The largest part of the plants consumed comes from indigenous populations that are in danger of extinction. Greece and Spain are the countries with the highest consumption of mountain tea. Approximately 17 species grow wild in the mountains of Greece, some of them are Sideritis syriaca (Malotiras - Psiloritis), Sideritis scardica, Sideritis athoa and Sideritis raeseri (Parnassos).
An ever-increasing number of laboratory studies determine its components and focuses on the effect they have on the human body. It has been found that mountain tea contains a multitude of ingredients, mainly flavonoids, diterpenes, phenylpropanes, iridoids and monoterpenes. Many modern research also confirms the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and analgesic action of these substances.
