今天我要给你们介绍一种茶，我觉得很棒。
If you look at this, this is turmeric. It's world worth having a look for this.
看这个，这是姜黄，姜黄在世界上值得一寻。
Unbelievable, brilliant to use in your cooking, of course.

We normally get it like this, as a dry product.

Either way, this is absolutely packed to the rafters with iron, which is no bad thing
不管怎样，姜黄富含铁元素，铁元素可是个好东西。
because we want to have lovely, healthy blood, cells -- and it's really, really good for our general health.
我们想拥有健康的血液和细胞可都离不开它呢——铁对我们的身心健康大有裨益。

Get this into a jar.

Now, what I love to do is I make little teas in an airtight jar, right?
我喜欢用密封的罐子泡茶，
I use that as my tea pot.
我把它当茶壶用。
Obviously, make sure it's a nice Kilner jar, something that is heatproof.
你得确保这是一个耐高温的大玻璃瓶。
And then, whatever is left over, goes into the fridge and then you chill it,
然后，将剩余的都放进冰箱冷藏，
and you get a totally different sort of flavor spectrum when you keep it.
保存的时候，你会得到完全不同的味道。
I love doing it with things like lemon, orange...
我喜欢用柠檬、橘子之类的东西来泡茶……
If you got a speed peeler, those essential oils come out of zest...
如果你有一个快速削皮器，橘子味儿就会释放出来…
just a couple of bits of zest, literally 3 bits like that are going to transform your tea.
加几片橘子皮调味，像这样3片就能让你的茶焕然一新。
So, there's a little slice and a few bits of that.
里面放了几块薄片橘子和几块橘子皮。
You can absolutely sweeten this with a little bit honey, if you want to.
如果你想的话，可以加一点蜂蜜，让味道更甜一些。
A little teaspoon of honey in there for a drink for 2-3 people.
加一小茶匙蜂蜜进去，2-3人的量。
It's delicious and that balance that sort of the bitter, the fragrant, the juicy... and the honey is lovely.

Just a little bit of thyme goes in and let's let it steep for a couple of minutes.
一点点的百里香，让其浸泡几分钟。
Let's just talk about what we can say about these herbal teas for a fact.
让我们来说说这些草药茶的功效吧。
We've got vitamin C in the orange.
橘子富含维生素C。
The vitamin C in the orange is going to let you absorb more iron from the turmeric-- double pleasure --
橘子中的维生素C会促进姜黄中铁的吸收——双重乐趣——
But in the thyme, you've got calcium, can you believe it?
但百里香中含有钙，你相信吗？
We always associate sort of calcium-rich-food with dairy, but actually, it's in thyme as well.
提到含钙的食物，我们就会想到奶制品，但实际上，百里香中也含有钙。
So you can see, they're not empty calories, right?
所以，你们知道了，它们不是空热量，对吧?
This is not like necking a load of soda.
和汽水不一样。
This is beautiful stuff, which is amazing!

Basically, the story is that whether is kind of ancient Greeks, Romans, Chinese medicine, yadayadaya --
基本上，无论是古希腊人、罗马人、中药
there's so much association for a beautiful herbal tea and good health.
草药茶都大大关乎着人们身体的健康。
I can't actually legitimately say a lot of this stuff because the truth is, science, medicine, just doesn't know enough about what we know, yet.
我不能给出合理的依据，因为事实上，我们所知道的还不能从科学和医学上进行合理解释。
The question is, are you prepared to sit around and wait for science to tell you that this is good?
问题是，你准备好坐下来等待科学告诉你这些东西对人体有益吗?
Naaah! Get in there! Boil up a kettle, have some fun with spices, things like fennel seeds, cinnamon --
到那儿，烧壶水，加点香料，比如茴香籽，肉桂
You know, all these lovely spices have got lovely micronutrients for sure!
