Red tea, sometimes called rooibos or red bush tea, has extremely high vitamin C content. Tea made with the rooibos plant turns red due to red pigment in its stems and leaves, according to Drugs.com. The rooibos shrub belongs to the legume family of plants and is native to South Africa. Some 8,000 tons of rooibos tea are produced there every year, about half of which is exported, according to BBC News. The organic version gives you health benefits without toxic agrochemicals, according to Dr. Andrew Weil, founder of the Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine.
Organic Red Tea from OrganoGod
Red tea is a source of antioxidants, according to a 2007 study published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology. This might make rooibos a healthy alternative to caffeine-containing drinks, advises lead study author L.J. McGaw. Antioxidants combat free radicals in your body. Free radicals cause damage to cell DNA and are implicated in heart disease and cancer, according to the BBC.
Organic Red Tea for Brain Health
Red bush tea may protect against central nervous system damage in some areas of the brain, advises Drugs.com. Rooibos is effective because it prevents age-related products of oxidation in the brain, according to Philip H. Elzer and Krassimir T. Metodiev, authors of “Risk Infections and Possibilities for Biomedical Terrorism.” In a study on rats published in the journal “Neuroscience Letters,” rooibos prevented age-related accumulation of lipid peroxides, which can hamper brain signal intensity, according to lead study author O. Inanami. Rats that did not receive rooibos had an age-related decrease in the signal intensity in the cerebral cortex, cerebellum and hippocampus. Rats that received rooibos showed little change in signal intensity in these brain areas, and their magnetic resonance imaging, or MRI, images were similar to those of young rats, according to the study.
Organic Red Tea’s Anti-Cancer Activity
Rooibos may have anti-cancer activity. In a 2005 study on rats published in the journal Cancer Letters, the plant’s extract inhibited skin cancer tumors, though it did not do so as well as green tea, reports lead study author J. Marnewick. While the potential for this benefit exists, this red tea is not as well-studied as green tea, according to Weil. Thus far, no studies on red tea suggest that it has benefits equal to green tea.

Organic Red Tea Combats Heart Disease
Red rooibos herbal tea contains high levels of polyphenols, a type of anti-oxidant believed to combat the blood-vessel inflammation that leads to heart disease. To test this theory, participants in a 2010 study at Cape Peninsula University of Technology in Bellville, South Africa, consumed six cups of red rooibos tea each day for 6 weeks. Scientists concluded that red rooibos could significantly improve the balance of your LDL- and HDL-cholesterol levels, which can lessen your risk of heart disease.
Organic Red Tea for Diarrhea
African natives have long used red rooibos tea to treat diarrhea in adults and children, Duke notes. Researchers at Aga Khan University Medical College in Karachi, Pakistan, studied the mechanisms behind this treatment in 2006 and found high levels of several anti-spasmodic compounds in the tea. They concluded that red rooibos tea is “justified in its use for hyperactive gastrointestinal disorders,” or diarrhea.

Organic Red Tea Helps Asthma
Some asthma sufferers report encouraging results from the use of red rooibos tea as a folk remedy for relaxing chronic constricted airways, reports Duke. Studies at Aga Khan University Medical College indicated that rooibos’s high levels of the anti-oxidant flavonoid chrysoeriol, known for its anti-microbial, anti-viral and anti-inflammatory effects, create a bronchodilator effect. Scientists concluded that “this study provides a sound mechanistic basis for the wide medicinal use of rooibos tea, with the therapeutic potential to be developed for congestive respiratory ailments.”
Organic Red Tea for Anti-Aging
South Africans commonly drink rooibos for its anti-aging affects, Duke notes. Oxygen radical absorbance capacity, or ORAC, is a rating system used by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to help consumers choose foods high in anti-oxidants as a means of reducing the risk of many diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, cancer, diabetes and heart disease. Researchers at California State University-Northridge have determined that 1 cup of red rooibos tea contains an ORAC value of 725 to 1,144, depending on the preparation style.
Organo Gold Organic Red Tea Has Cordeceps Militaris
Benefits include increased lung function, improved kidney and liver function, along with antioxidant properties and decreased fatigue. Health Library reports that the Chinese have also used cordyceps as a treatment for bronchitis, tuberculosis and renal failure. According to the University of Iowa, some Chinese athletes who used cordyceps to increase their speed, endurance and performance broke swimming and running world records. The University of Iowa also reported that consumption of cordyceps by laboratory animals increased the liver’s production of adenosine triphosphate, necessary for energy release, by as much as 55 percent. It also increased oxygen utilization in mice by 30 to 50 percent.
