Naturally Caffeine-Free : Low in Tannin : Rich in Anti-oxidants : Anti-spasmodic : Anti-allergic  

Rooibos - "herbal infusion". It is an extremely healthy drink and it is a product tailor-made for today's lifestyle. A hot, soothing cup of Rooibos is completely pure and natural, containing no additives, preservatives or colorants of any kind. It contains no caffeine, which can be harmful to the central nervous system, causing irritability, high blood pressure and erratic sleep patterns. It is low in tannin, a substance which adversely affects the bodies metabolism by decreasing the absorption of iron and protein. The clean, aromatic flavor of Rooibos can safely be enjoyed in unlimited quantities throughout the day, with no harmful side effects.

Perhaps the highest testimony of the benefits of this pure and natural beverage comes from Japan, a society famous for its age-old devotion to the art of tea-making. Here, Rooibos has been promoted as a healthy alternative to other cold and warm beverages. It is also used as an ingredient in various products such as bread, cosmetics and sweets.

Japanese scientists, such as Matatoshi Nakano, have discovered that the effect of free radicals (a by-product of normal cell function) in the process of ageing and the decline of the immune system is limited by the anti-oxidants in Rooibos. If the product is brewed/boiled for longer than 10 minutes, the anti-oxidant activity becomes much higher.

They also found Rooibos to be beneficial in the treatment of high blood pressure, diabetes, mellitus, atherosclerosis, allergic diseases, various dermatus diseases, liver diseases and cataracts.

Apart from all these benefits of drinking Rooibos, it remains a pleasant tasting everyday drinking beverage that can be consumed hot or cold in unlimited quantities. In addition, the mineral content of Rooibos contributes to the maintenance of healthy skin, teeth, bones, and metabolic processes.
