Corn Silk Tea

Corn silk tea is made from corn silk — the long, silky fibers that grow inside the husks of ears of corn.  Corn silk itself is made from the stigma, the yellowish thread-like strands from the female flower of the corn plant. Corn silk tea is a common treatment for bladder infections in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM).  Some people believe many conditions may be treatable with corn silk tea. Scientists have studied a few of these, like heart issues and high blood sugar.
