Rooibos tea is a concentrated source of antioxidants and flavonoids. In fact, Rooibos tea has been found to have as much as 50 times more Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) than Green Tea.
It also has other antioxidants not found in other teas like aspalathin and nothofagin.
It is naturally mineral rich, caffeine free and has low tannin levels compared to black and green teas.
Rooibos tea may support healthy blood sugar levels. In a study on mice, aspalathin suppresses the increase in fasting blood glucose levels. It may also support healthy glucose tolerance, apparently through stimulating glucose uptake in muscle tissues and insulin secretion from the pancreas. So drinking rooibos tea during a meal may not be a bad idea.
Rooibos tea may also support respiratory health. According to a study on rats, in addition to supporting healthy blood pressure levels, rooibos tea may possibly be an antispasmodic. This helps explain why rooibos tea is commonly used to support gastrointestinal and respiratory health. The flavonoid chrysoeriol seems to be mainly responsible for the possible antispasmodic effect. This is a naturally caffeine free organic loose tea.
