Rooibos tea made from a South African plant, so it is not technically a tea. It is a leaf not a root, from the plant. So kind of like Yerba Mate. Frankly tea is fun and healthful to mix different ingredients. Look at the benefits of each possible ingredient and then mix away.
Rooibos tea is known for its various health benefits. It is rich in antioxidants, which can help protect against oxidative stress and support heart health. Studies have shown that drinking rooibos tea may help regulate cholesterol levels, particularly for people at risk of heart disease, by lowering LDL (bad cholesterol) and increasing HDL (good cholesterol) levels.
Additionally, it may help manage blood glucose levels and prevent insulin resistance, potentially aiding in the management of diabetes symptoms and the prevention of type 2 diabetes.
Rooibos tea is also beneficial for skin health due to its alpha hydroxy acid and zinc content, which can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and aid in wound healing (hm, maybe a skin ingredient)
Rooibos contains essential minerals like calcium, manganese, and fluoride, which contribute to strong and healthy bones.
Rooibos tea is caffeine-free, making it a suitable choice for those sensitive to caffeine or looking to reduce their caffeine intake.
Oops not finished. Advised that some teas and brands were better than others.
One was dandelion root tea another was red rooibos? Pretty color like hibiscus. Now all these kinds of teas are a bit ( a lot) confusing. So is a mixture of root teas the way to go? And what is red rooibus tea? ( a root like dandelion?)
