Health benefits of herbs in Antioxidant Tea
Our ingredients have been uniquely picked for their health benefits and flavour, making the perfect antioxidant herbal tea recipe. There are many antioxidant benefits that each ingredient has to offer to our body:Skin: Goji berries are loaded with beta-carotene, this helps clear out skin, boost our immune system and protect our eyes.
Circulatory System: Hawthorne is traditionally used as a way to control both high and low blood pressure and cholesterol. Honey bush helps improve circulation, and therefore heart health.
Digestive System: People have used rose petals and rosehip for centuries as a natural way to treat digestive disorders. Additionally, hibiscus also helps the digestive system as well as with treating inflammatory issues.
Excretory System: Cranberries continue to be praised for their antibacterial properties. This is mainly because they help treat and prevent urinary tract infections and kidney stones.
Stress Relief: Schizandra berry is the ultimate super berry. Besides being beneficial to liver functions, digestion and skin, it is also extremely helpful with dealing with the effects of stress by decreasing the levels of stress hormones in the blood and lowering fatigue.

What are antioxidants?
Antioxidants help protect the body from damage caused by molecules called free radicals. When free radicals accumulate in the body they can cause oxidative stress, which affects various systems and organs in the body. Antioxidants neutralise these free radicals, and thus mitigate against oxidative stress.
Are antioxidants commonly found in tea?
The amount of antioxidants found in green and black tea is very high, this being the same for many herbal teas. Our Antioxidant Tea incorporates a variety of herbs and berries. Berries are filled with nutrients and vitamins that have been chosen specifically to help protect the body. Consuming foods and beverages that are high in antioxidants is important as it helps fight disease, infection and stay in good health.
