Rooibos tea isn’t just a comforting drink—it’s a scientifically-backed powerhouse for heart health! Dr Gerald Maarman, a senior lecturer at Stellenbosch University, has been at the forefront of research revealing Rooibos' cardiovascular benefits. Raised in a family steeped in traditional plant medicine, Dr Maarman was inspired by the healing properties of South African plants like buchu and cancerbush.

In 2016, his groundbreaking studies began, focusing on how Rooibos can support heart health by reducing the effects of high blood pressure, limiting toxic build-up, and improving energy efficiency in heart cells. Packed with antioxidants, Rooibos offers numerous health benefits, including anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, and cholesterol-lowering properties. Now, after more than eight years of research, Dr Maarman has published his findings, proving that Rooibos improves the overall health of one’s heart.
