Red tea: kills cancer and lowers cholesterol
South Africans have long used red bush tea, or rooibos tea, for medicinal purposes. It decreases inflammation and oxidative stress and is known to promote cell death (apoptosis) in cancer cells.
When forty people consumed six cups of rooibos tea daily for six weeks, researchers observed significant health changes. Levels of polyphenols in the blood increased significantly. Polyphenols are an antioxidant that protects against oxidative stress and inflammation.
In addition, consuming red tea was followed by significant increases in HDL cholesterol and decreases in harmful LDL and triglycerides.
