If you want to take care of your health and help your body stay healthy, I invite you to drink Rooibos. This plant, which has been known in South Africa for centuries, has now been scientifically proven to have at least 9 beneficial effects on our health. We will talk about each of them in this blog.

Rooibos – effect 1 : HELPS THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM

Among the components of Rooibos is Vitamin C, which reduces the number of colds in a healthy adult and decreases their duration. It is also rich in minerals such as calcium, potassium, copper, fluorine, manganese, magnesium and zinc; all of them necessary for our body. It is also rich in antioxidants, which help our immune system, among other beneficial effects; it contains a unique antioxidant called “Asphalatin”, which we will discuss later in another article.

One of the effects of Rooibos is that it is a bronchodilator, which means that it dilates the bronchi and thus increases the flow of air into the lungs, making breathing easier. By decreasing resistance in the airways, Rooibos drinkers will have another positive effect, preventing common heart diseases including arteriosclerosis and heart attacks. It is also believed to help combat the effects of asthma.
