Rooibos (pronounced ROY-boss) is a green, unfermented herbal tea from the fermented leaves of the Aspalathus linearis shrub. This plant is native to South Africa. Many people enjoy it as an alternative to green or black tea. Rooibos tea has a sweet, delicate, and earthy flavor. It contains several antioxidants, which may explain some of the tea’s health benefits based on this 2018 article in Medical News Today.

Potential Health Benefits of Drinking French Lemon Creme Green Roobios Tea:

Research into the effects of rooibos tea is limited. However, based on existing studies, the health benefits may include:

Caffeine-Free
Best Friends Rooibos tea is caffeine-free and low in tannins. It is free from caffeine, making it a good option for pregnant people, children, and those who are sensitive to caffeine. While caffeine may have some health benefits, not everyone can consume caffeine safely. It may interfere with sleep, worsen anxiety, and cause physical effects such as jitteriness and heart palpitations. Caffeine is present in black tea, green tea, and coffee. Rooibos tea is a good alternative for people who would like to reduce their caffeine intake or avoid it completely.
Low in Tannins

Green rooibos tea contains very low levels of tannins. Tannins are naturally occurring compounds present in many plant foods, including black tea, green tea, and red wine. However, tannins interfere with the body’s absorption of iron. This is especially true with the form that comes from plant-based foods. According to a 2013 study, drinking six cups of rooibos tea daily for 6-weeks did not negatively affect the participants’ iron status.

Rich in Antioxidants

It contains several antioxidants with the green variety, such as French Lemon Creme Green Roobios Tea, containing higher levels than the red. Antioxidants are important for human health because they stop free radicals from damaging cells in the body. However, the results of an animal study on rooibos tea suggest that it can improve the liver\’s antioxidant status. Similarly, studies in humans have found that rooibos tea consumption increases antioxidants\’ levels in the body. But, the effects are small and wear off quickly. Other research suggests that roobios tea does not affect antioxidant levels in the blood.

Heart Health

Antioxidants are important for a healthy heart, which is why rooibos tea may provide cardiovascular benefits. As a result, it may also keep cholesterol levels in check. In a 2011 study, 40 people at risk of cardiovascular disease drank six cups of rooibos tea daily for 6-weeks. At the end of this period, the participants had significantly reduced low-density lipoprotein, or “bad,” cholesterol levels and significantly increased high-density lipoprotein, or “good,” cholesterol levels. This was in comparison to the control group. Therefore, rooibos tea may also improve heart health by inhibiting angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which increases blood pressure. A small study reported that rooibos tea inhibited ACE activity 30–60 minutes after consumption.

Managing Diabetes
Research suggests that the antioxidants in rooibos tea may have antidiabetic potential. As a result, rooibos tea may help people with diabetes keep their blood sugar levels under control and reduce the risk of complications. Animal research has found that the antioxidant aspalathin present in rooibos tea has antidiabetic potential. It may also help people with diabetes reduce their risk of vascular inflammation and atherosclerosis. These are both factors that play a role in the development of heart problems. People who have diabetes are two to four times more likely to die from heart disease than people who do not have diabetes. This is according to the American Heart Association (AHA). Research suggests that this antioxidant helps suppress the vascular inflammation that results from high blood sugar levels. There are low levels of aspalathin in red rooibos tea, but it is more abundant in the unfermented green tea, such as French Lemon Creme.
Weight Management

Rooibos tea is calorie-free, so it may be a good beverage option for those trying to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight. Moreover, according to the results of a 2014 study, rooibos tea may also benefit weight management by increasing leptin levels. Leptin is a hormone that helps regulate food intake and sends signals to the body that it has had enough food. The tea stopped the formation of new fat cells and encouraged quicker fat metabolism.
