Rooibos<br />
RB18.13<br />
Uniquely South African<br />
The unique Rooibos plant (Aspalathus<br />
linearis) is only found in the craggy<br />
Cederberg mountains some 250 km<br />
north of Cape Town. Rooibos is completely<br />
pure and natural with no preservatives or<br />
colourants, full of natural goodness and fits in<br />
perfectly with today’s healthy lifestyle. Although<br />
Rooibos has been used for over 300 years,<br />
research on the medicinal value and agricultural<br />
potential of Rooibos only started at the beginning of<br />
the 20th century. Today, research around the world<br />
confirms the health benefits of this “mountain” tea,<br />
and consumers all over the world enjoy it as a tasty<br />
healthy beverage.<br />
The health benefits of Rooibos<br />
Rooibos is naturally caffeine-free and rich in<br />
antioxidants. The high levels of antioxidants and<br />
polyphenols help to fight heart disease and various<br />
forms of cancer. It is low in tannin, a substance which<br />
affects the body’s metabolism by interfering with its<br />
ability to absorb iron and protein.<br />
The versatility of Rooibos<br />
Rooibos can be enjoyed as a health-enhancing<br />
tea, or used as an ingredient to add<br />
nutritional value, health benefits,<br />
colour or flavour to food, drinks<br />
and other products.<br />
