In case of gastric disturbances, we utilize a herbal sage tea infusion of muscat sage. We use one teaspoon of dry extract per cup of water, cooking it for 15 to 20 minutes under cover. The prepared beverage is consumed two to three times daily, with a serving size of 1/4 cup. Red sage supplementation should last for 10 days, during which time it is recommended to take 30 tablets (soluble under the tongue). The daily dose is 3 tablets and should correspond to 6.56 mg of the preparation per kilogram of body weight. The daily dose of chia seeds is 25 g, and they should be consumed during meals for better effect.
