Health benefits of organic rooibos tea
Made from the leaves of the Aspalathus linearis plant, rooibos tea (pronounced "ROY-boss") is naturally caffiene-free and rich in polyphenols, offering a whole host of health benefits.
Also known as red bush tea because of the distinctive crimson colour of the leaves and the beverage, rooibos tea contains many vital minerals including magnesium, calcium, iron, zinc and alpha hydroxyl acid, along with high levels of vitamin C and powerful antioxidants.
Drinking a cup of organic rooibos tea can help to aid weight loss, improve the appearance of the skin, alleviate pain, soothe allergies and ease digestion. Research also suggests that red bush tea can support heart health and – when drunk without any added sweetener – may even help to control or prevent diabetes.
