Herbal immune support you can sip
Immune Tea combines 10 carefully selected botanicals into a soothing herbal tea designed to support healthy immune function and overall wellness.* Instead of relying on a single herb, the formula brings together roots, berries, bark, flowers, and leaves with long histories of use in traditional herbal practices.
Elderberry, echinacea, astragalus, rose hips, hibiscus, eleuthero, and other herbs give the blend a diverse botanical profile. Stevia leaf provides natural sweetness that balances the earthy, tart, and herbal characteristics of the formula.
Daily immune system support
Supporting your body's natural defenses
Your immune system works continuously to identify and respond to everyday challenges. Nutrition, sleep, physical activity, hydration, stress management, and other lifestyle factors all play important roles in maintaining normal immune function.
Immune Tea complements these healthy habits with botanicals traditionally associated with immune wellness.* Astragalus, echinacea, elderberry, heal all herb, and pau d'arco form the immune-focused foundation of the blend, while the remaining herbs broaden its nutritional and antioxidant profile.
Antioxidant-rich herbal ingredients
Plant compounds that help protect against oxidative stress
Several ingredients in Immune Tea naturally contain antioxidant compounds. Elderberries provide anthocyanins and other flavonoids, rose hips contain vitamin C and carotenoids, and hibiscus provides anthocyanins and phenolic compounds.
Antioxidants help protect cells against oxidative stress caused by free radicals. Because oxidative balance is part of overall wellness, antioxidant-rich plants can be valuable additions to a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.*
Adaptogenic herbs for everyday resilience
Astragalus and eleuthero bring another dimension to the blend
Immune Tea does more than combine traditional immune herbs. Astragalus and eleuthero have long histories of use in herbal traditions as adaptogenic botanicals.
Adaptogens are plants traditionally used to support the body's ability to adapt to everyday physical and mental stress.* This makes these herbs particularly useful in a formula designed for regular wellness support rather than only occasional use.
Seasonal immune support
A comforting tea when seasons change
Changes in temperature, routines, travel, sleep patterns, and time spent around other people can make certain times of year particularly important for maintaining healthy habits.
A warm cup of Immune Tea provides an easy way to make immune-focused herbal ingredients part of your routine during fall and winter or whenever you want additional everyday wellness support.*
Because it can also be enjoyed cold, there is no need to reserve this tea for colder months.

Immune Tea vs. Immune Formula
Herbal tea vs. concentrated capsules
Immune Tea and Immune Formula are both designed to complement a wellness routine focused on healthy immune function, but their formulas and formats are different.*
Immune Tea contains 10 herbs and is designed to be steeped in hot water. Its formula includes elderberry, rose hips, hibiscus, alfalfa, astragalus, echinacea, eleuthero, pau d'arco, heal all, and stevia. It is a good choice for someone who enjoys turning herbal support into a relaxing daily beverage.
Our Immune Formula is a capsule-based supplement featuring 13 botanicals, including astragalus, pau d'arco, cat's claw, ginger, chaga mushroom, maitake mushroom, echinacea, Panax ginseng, guduchi, schisandra, heal all, suma, and goldenseal.*
Choose Immune Tea if you prefer a soothing herbal beverage. Consider Immune Formula if you want a convenient capsule and a broader blend of immune-focused herbs.*
They can also complement one another as different parts of an immune-focused wellness routine.
Immune Tea vs. Anti-V Tea
Everyday immune wellness vs. a more specialized herbal blend
Both teas contain botanicals associated with immune wellness, but they are formulated with different purposes in mind.
Immune Tea is centered on everyday immune support and general wellness.* Its blend of elderberry, astragalus, echinacea, rose hips, hibiscus, eleuthero, and other herbs makes it suitable for incorporating into a regular self-care routine.
Anti-V Tea is another Dherbs herbal tea formulated around the body's natural defense mechanisms and broader cleansing support.*
Choose Immune Tea when your primary goal is everyday herbal immune support. Consider Anti-V Tea when you want the different botanical profile and wellness focus offered by that formula.*
Immune Tea vs. elderberry tea
Multi-herb support vs. a single botanical
Elderberry tea primarily focuses on the naturally occurring anthocyanins and other phytonutrients found in elderberries.
Immune Tea takes a broader approach. Elderberry is only one component of a 10-herb blend that also provides echinacea, astragalus, eleuthero, rose hips, hibiscus, heal all, pau d'arco, alfalfa, and stevia.
Someone specifically interested in elderberry may prefer a simple elderberry tea. Someone looking for multiple traditional immune-supporting botanicals in a single cup may prefer Immune Tea.*
Immune Tea vs. green tea
Caffeine-free herbal blend vs. Camellia sinensis
Green tea is produced from Camellia sinensis and naturally contains caffeine along with catechins such as EGCG.
Immune Tea is an herbal blend rather than a traditional tea made from Camellia sinensis. Its value comes from its assortment of herbs, berries, roots, bark, flowers, and leaves rather than green tea catechins.
This makes Immune Tea a useful option for people looking for an herbal tea specifically formulated around immune wellness rather than a conventional caffeinated tea.*
When to drink Immune Tea
Make immune support part of your routine
There is no need to wait for a particular season to enjoy Immune Tea. A cup can become part of your morning wellness routine, an afternoon break, or an evening self-care ritual.
Some people may particularly enjoy incorporating immune-supporting herbal teas during seasonal changes, travel, demanding schedules, or other periods when maintaining healthy daily habits becomes especially important.*
Why choose Immune Tea?
Ten herbs in one convenient tea bag
Immune Tea combines several well-known immune-supporting botanicals with antioxidant-rich berries, flowers, and nutrient-containing leaves in an easy-to-prepare tea.*
There are no complicated preparation requirements. Simply steep a tea bag for five minutes and enjoy it warm or cold. This makes Immune Tea an easy addition to an established wellness routine, especially for people who prefer drinking herbs rather than taking another capsule.
