How save is the oolong compared to organic?

Karen, Prince of Peace specifies that this oolong tea IS organic. As consumers of an offshore product, we have no way of "proving" that it is organic, but the company appears to have a good reputation, based on reviews on their site and on dealer site, so I will trust that if they say it is organic, it is. I have pitched the box my teabags came in, so I don't know if there is USDA or FDA approval on this product or not. You might contact the company at www.popus.com and read about this tea. They stipulate that it is "Certified Organic by IMO Switzerland." Interesting reading on their site. I really do like this tea, it is mild and soothing and delicious to me. I hope you will like it.

I've been drinking it for years, but do not know the scientific answer to your question.

Thanks for your question. Our organic tea is tested by individual labs and certified by international certification body - ECOCERT ICO. Hope that it helps. :)

Unless you have an allergy to it (in which case you would not use it at all) I see no harm in using an organic product derived from the fruit of the rose plant which is used in vitamin supplement form. You might, however, contact the manufacturer to make absolutely sure if you are concerned.

It doesn't stain, you can't remove the leaves so I would advise oolong as opposed to jasmine, and it is most definitely worth it!

Yes it is. As far as I know the organic one is not processed with chemicals or uses sintetic dyes. I really liked mine and I m buying more.

The Organic version is made without the use of pesticides, genetic engineering, and so on. This might be helpful to you: http://www.organic.org/home/faq

All 6 are labeled as organic ..... But I'm not a chemist , so I trust they are true. I have used the tea tree directly on my skin , without any problems.

No this is not standardized. And it's wild harvested in China so it might or might not be organic. $37/lb is crazy expensive! Try Rosemountainherbs dot com -- I just checked and their certified organic is about $20/lb + shipping, but it looks to be temporarily out of stock.

I can only assume organic is better for EVERYTHING. I returned this item because it made my skin on my face feel "uncomfortable" - not sure why.

Well, the first answer says it. With "organic" it is often a kind of trust, not only with this product but many others. "Organic" is watered down by big companies who jump on the band wagon to increase profit. All I can say is that this product, compared to the one I bought a while ago is much better. It is exactly as the company describes it. I use it on my face and it does wonder;-).

Absolutely ! Have had organics in crisper with an apple and they lasted almost a week. Be sure to get firm berries to start. Don't wash till time to eat. Apple has saved me tons of $ on fresh fruits and vegs

I first would like to state that Organic Traditions is a reputable company, that being said I usually just use these straight out of the bag, I store mine in the refrigerator to protect the delicate oil in them. I do not was my seeds and I have not sprouted these as of yet.

Ordered 5 pounds of this, and I am very satisfied. I do not know if it is organic, really, but it is very strong in color and flavor. I've been keeping it in the freezer in a ziploc bagso it won't dry up too much. Whenever I want to make my turmeric with ginger tea, I just take out about a dozen pieces, wash them and scrape them, cut the up with kitchen scissors and boil in tap water until the water turns red. I would recommend these. Hope this helps.

To tell the truth I don't know. I mainly ordered it because it is Organic. I've already finished one bottle and was so impressed that I just purchased 2 more. It lasted me about a month or so.

Yes, Crop Improvement Association (OCIA) International is one of the world's oldest, largest and most trusted leaders in the organic certification industry. Not only are they organic they are whole grain meaning they are not de-germinated and you receive the full benefit of the product. To insure freshness, we have to nitrogen flush to remove the oxygen which is more costly but provides you a higher quality product.

I personally have not used organic ginger root, to the best of my recollection, however, I have used this product for many years and it works great!

We usually purchase organic and from known sources. This is not listed as organic, only Kosher and all-Natural--from a community owned co-op. But the fresh dill aroma when I opened the package was GREAT, like fresh-dried dill from my own garden. Have stored it in a glass jar and 2 months later still just as aromatic and fresh tasting as when first opened. Have shared with family and friends and they love it, also. If you are looking for 'organic', try this url from Amazon.
