Mulberry tree leaves are used to feed silkworms. People in some Asian countries use the leaves for many years as a herbal medicine to remove excessive heat and toxins from the body.

Being rich in iron, protein, essential amino acids, calcium (50 times that of spinach, 27 times that of milk), vitamins, dietary fiber (4.7 times that of green tea) and minerals, the leaves are harvested and dried for use as herbal remedies. Most of all, mulberry leaves are known to be highly helpful for maintaining healthy levels of glucose in the blood, but it may also promote cardiovascular health.

Traditionally, mulberry leaf, which was considered to have various health benefits, was made into a tea in Korea.

The mulberry leaf tea is prepared by labor-intensive manufacturing processes consisting of collecting young leaves of mulberry in autumn, steaming and roasting treatment.
The leaves are steamed, and are then cooled, which is aimed at retaining the original color, flavor and taste of mulberry leaves. After going through the process, the leaves are rubbed down and pressed under an evenly heated machine. Then these leaves are being dried with the moisture in the leaf less than 4 percent, which is intended to prevent the tea leaves from oxidizing.
