You might know that Rooibos has many benefits, but did you know that it can also increase your libido?
According to experts, antioxidants are critical for a healthy libido. Aside from enhancing general health, antioxidants also allow for the healthy functioning of vital blood vessels and capillaries necessary for optimal sexual function. In addition, antioxidants also ensure that neurons keep firing feel-good messages to the brain, which is considered the most important organ in the body as far as intimacy is concerned.
According to the SA Rooibos Council, the tea is exceptionally rich in antioxidants, ranking right up there with other libido jump-starters such as red wine and oysters.
