Naturally caffeine-free and rich in a variety of minerals,
Rooibos tea is the perfect beverage for healthy active people
of all ages. Unlike coffee and regular tea, it is also
low in tannin, a substance which may affect the body's
metabolism by interfering with iron and protein absorption.
The mineral content of Rooibos is an added benefit - iron,
potassium, zinc, manganese and sodium may help to maintain
healthy skin, teeth and bones. Rooibos is grown only in a
small area 250km north of Cape Town in the Cederberg area
and no alternative source of supply for this unique product
is available anywhere in the world.
- Rooibos is completely pure and natural as it contains
no additives, preservatives or colorants.
- Rooibos tea is naturally caffeine free.
- Rooibos contains significant antioxidants that can help
fight free radicals (a by-product of normal cell function).
- Rooibos tea is low in harmful tannin and therefore does
not have a negative effect on the absorption of iron in
the body.
- Rooibos contains iron, potassium, magnesium, and copper
- minerals which are essential for several metabolic functions.
- Rooibos also supplements the daily amounts of calcium,
manganese and fluoride, needed for the development of strong
teeth and bones.
- As Rooibos contains no oxalic acid it can be consumed
freely by people suffering with kidney stones.
- Rooibos tea is a pick-me-up in the morning, an excellent
thirst-quencher during the day and at night.
