Tannins interfere with the body's absorption of iron, particularly non-heme iron, which is the form that comes from plant-based foods.

According to the results of a study from 2013 , drinking six cups of rooibos infusion a day for 6 weeks did not negatively affect the iron level of the participants. < / p>

Rich in antioxidants

Rooibos contains several antioxidants (with the green variety containing higher levels than the red one). Some of the most notable antioxidants in tea are quercetin and aspalatine.

Antioxidants are important for human health because they prevent free radicals from damaging the cells of the body.

The results of a study on rooibos suggest that it may improve liver health.

Human studies have found that consuming rooibos increases antioxidant levels in the body, but that the effects are small and wear off quickly.

Heart health

Antioxidants are important for a healthy heart, so rooibos may provide cardiovascular benefits. You can also keep the levels of colesterol under control. < / span>

A Study 2011 , with 40 people at risk of cardiovascular disease drank six cups of rooibos a day for 6 weeks.

At the end of this period, the participants had significantly reduced levels of low-density lipoprotein or "bad" cholesterol and significantly increased levels of high-density lipoprotein or "good" cholesterol, compared to the group control.

Rooibos may also improve heart health by inhibiting angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), which increases blood pressure . Rooibos inhibited ACE activity between 30 and 60 minutes after consumption.

Diabetes management

Rooibos can help people with diabetes to keep their blood sugar levels under control and therefore reduce the risk of complications. < / p>

The antioxidant aspalatin, which is present in rooibos, has been found to have antidiabetic potential.

Aspalatine may also help people with diabetes reduce the risk of inflammation vascular and atherosclerosis . Both are 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 without diabetes, according to the Association American Heart Association (AHA).

Aspalatine helps suppress vascular inflammation that results from high blood sugar levels.

There are levels of aspalatine in Mediterranean rooibos red tea, but more abundant in unfermented green tea.
