Rooibos tea or " red bush tea" is grown from a small shrub, which only thrives in the Cedarberg region near Cape Town, South Africa. Rooibis does not need to undergo a chemical process to remove the caffeine, because it is naturally caffeine free.
Rooibos is loaded with antioxidants which help protect from free radicals – those toxic by-products of normal cell function.
Rooibos contains many minerals such as copper, iron, magnesium, calcium, zinc and potassium, making it very beneficial for healthy bones and strong teeth.
Pregnant and nursing mothers can also use Rooibos to soothe babies who have colic and infants with stomach cramps. Many studies have shown that the tea has anti-spasmodic properties.
One of the many potent antioxidants in rooibos tea is called Chysoeriol. It can improve circulation by preventing the activity of the enzyme that triggers cardiovascular disease. Drinking rooibos tea also has been known to lower blood pressure and cholesterol.
Rooibos can be consumed as often as you wish and at any time of day. Many people choose to drink it before bedtime as it can help with insomnia. Due to its high mineral content and lack of caffeine, it’s known to help people to feel calm and relaxed.
So pick up your tea cups kids, adults, and all. Cheers as you drink to your health.
