Prepared according to the rules of the art and made from meticulously selected medicinal plants, Soin-et-Nature 's loose infusions enable optimal extraction of active ingredients for a targeted, natural and long-lasting therapeutic effect. Richer, customizable and superior in quality to conventional sachets, they are part of an authentic phytotherapy approach that respects your well-being and the integrity of the plants.

Why choose loose infusions for effective, natural phytotherapy?

Loose infusions are one of the most traditional, simple and effective ways of consuming medicinal plants. This age-old preparation, at the heart of all natural medicines, is based on the gentle extraction of a plant's active ingredients in hot water. Infusion makes the most of the benefits of leaves, flowers, buds and sometimes roots or bark, depending on the plant species concerned.

Unlike ready-to-use sachets, loose infusions offer superior quality, both organoleptically (taste, aroma, texture) and therapeutically. Plants are less processed, better preserved and visually identifiable, allowing you to benefit from their full potential.

Whether you're looking for a soothing sleep-inducing herbal tea, a digestive, draining, respiratory or remineralizing infusion, bulk allows for a personalized, tailor-made approach that respects both the plant and the body.

What's the difference between infusion, decoction and macerate?

It's essential to distinguish between the different aqueous extraction methods used in phytotherapy, in order to adapt the preparation to the nature of the plant:

Infusion: pour simmering water over the plant (often tender parts such as leaves or flowers), cover and leave to infuse for 5 to 10 minutes before filtering. This method is ideal for plants rich in volatile or water-soluble compounds.
Decoction: used for harder parts such as bark, roots or seeds. The plant is immersed in cold water, brought to the boil and left to simmer for 10 to 20 minutes. This method extracts active ingredients that are less soluble when heated.
Aqueous macerate (cold infusion): for plants rich in mucilage or sensitive to heat (such as poppy or mallow). The plant is left for several hours in water at room temperature to preserve its properties.

Infusion remains the most widespread method for quick and easy daily consumption of bulk medicinal plants.

What are the benefits of loose infusions, depending on the plants chosen?

Bulk herbal teas can be used to meet a multitude of physiological needs, for prevention or support:

Soothing and sleep-inducing infusions

Linden: gentle relaxant, recommended for nervousness or sleep disorders
Fragrant verbena: mild sedative, very pleasant taste
Passionflower, hawthorn, lemon balm: calm mental agitation, facilitate sleep.

Digestive infusions

Peppermint, fennel, green anise: stimulate digestion, reduce bloating

Draining and depurative infusions

Infusions for immunity and the winter season

Echinacea, rosehip, elderberry: stimulate natural defenses
Ginger, cinnamon, cloves: warm and energize the body

Why choose loose infusions rather than industrial sachets?

Loose infusions offer several decisive advantages:

Superior plant quality: whole leaves, intact flowers, recognizable roots or seeds
Less processing: better preservation of aromas and active ingredients
Dosage control: quantities can be adjusted as required
Personalized blends: create synergies tailored to your profile
Less unnecessary packaging: an ecological and economical choice
No additives, artificial flavors or preservatives
Conscious preparation: a moment of calm and connection with plants

Infusion thus becomes a genuine daily care routine, natural, sustainable and respectful of your equilibrium.

How to prepare an infusion in bulk?

Here are a few practical tips for a successful infusion:

Use good quality water, ideally with low mineral content
Don't boil the water: pour over the plant as soon as it begins to simmer.
Respect the infusion time (between 5 and 10 minutes, depending on the plant).
Infuse covered to preserve volatile substances
Filter carefully
Drink hot or lukewarm, plain or with a touch of honey if desired

On average, count 1 to 2 teaspoons of dried plant per cup (250 mL). For a course of treatment, the recommended daily intake is 2 to 3 cups per day, for 2 to 3 weeks, followed by a break.
