Description
The Mandela Tea range features indigenous South African teas such as honeybush, rooibos, and buchu. Honeybush is rich in essential minerals and antioxidants, which can help prevent anemia, maintain fluid balance, and support bone health. It also has stabilizing effects on blood sugar levels and anti-carcinogenic properties. Buchu has antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties, making it useful for relieving menstrual cramps, gout, and rheumatism. It is also a good source of vitamins A, B, C, and E. When combined with rooibos and/or buchu, honeybush creates a unique and delicious hot drink.
The Mandela Tea range contains honeybush, rooibos, and buchu - all indigenous teas to South Africa.
Honeybush contains many of the 14 minerals essential to health and well-being. Among these are the critical elements: Iron, Potassium, Calcium, and Manganese, which are vital to the prevention of anaemia, fluid balance abnormalities, and for adequate bone growth and repair. It is rich in antioxidants, isoflavours, and contestants. These compounds counter oxidative stress, and prevent the production of free radicals, helping to maintain the natural immune defence system. Additionally, honeybush tea is known to have a stabilising effect on the control of blood sugar levels, and contains preventative anti-carcinogenic properties.
Buchu on the other hand has antibacterial, antifungal and antispasmodic properties, and provides relief from premenstrual cramping and bloating. Buchu has anti-inflammatory properties make it a very effective remedy for gout and rheumatism, and it is a valuable source of vitamins A, B, C, and E.
The taste of honeybush tea is far more palatable than rooibos, but when honeybush is combined with rooibos and/or buchu, the powerful flavours are complimented perfectly, making a really unique and delicious hot drink.
