Please excuse my ignorance: what does the strong tea bind? In kung fu school, my sifu used to stop the bleeding with a brown powder that one of the other students said was tannin, but it smelled like the spices you’d use in Christmas cookies.

I use cayenne powder for bleeding. Once James ate some of the cayenne capsules and had a Conniption: “James hurt his mouth!!! He needs a BANDAID!!!” (This was during the “James and his other brother James” phase.)
