In Response To: Roibos (Maureen)

Roibos, or red tea, is not actually from the tea plant, Camellia sinensis. Infusions of roibos, then, are historically called tisanes instead of tea, but modern times make using "tea" an acceptable substitute for herbal preparations. Roibos has many beneficial properties that can be helpful in a regime for self-healing. Roibos has antioxidents which protect the body from cancers and blood vessel problems. It has flavonoids, a specific type of antioxident, which are anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and liver-protective. Roibos also has phenolic acids which are anti-inflammatory and antiseptic. Little research has been done with human subjects to see just how useful roibos can be in helping the body. But historically, roibos has been used in a variety of ways to cure ailments and inhibit illness.
