If you are sensitive to caffeine but need your daily dose of antioxidants, Koni Rooibos Tea should be your beverage of choice. Packed with antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and completely caffeine free, this is a great drink to have all day. If you haven't tried rooibos, you will fall in love with Koni Serenity Now rooibos tea. Here are some of the reasons why rooibos has become so popular. Allergy sufferers: Rooibos can help fight allergies by boosting the production of Cytochrome P450, an important enzyme that helps to metabolize allergens. Japanese researchers at Showa University have found that when rooibos is consumed regularly as a beverage, it helps to improve allergy status as a result of the increased levels of this enzyme in the body. In Japan, herbal teas such as rooibos are widely used to prevent and relieve pollen allergy, asthma and other chronic allergies. If you suffer from allergies, Koni Replenish Tea on ice is great all day beverage. Rich in vitamins and minerals: Premium loose leaf rooibos is packed with zinc, copper, calcium, manganese, magnesium, potassium. Boost your immunity: A study published in 2010 in the "Journal of Immunoassay and Immunochemistry" found that rooibos tea boosted immune system function by increasing the levels of certain beneficial proteins in the blood. One such protein the researchers found is interleukin-10, which can protect the body from viral infections. Great for athletes: I love rooibos tea after a workout because it helps to replenish the depleted minerals. Rooibos is also a good hydration source, replacing needed electrolytes (sodium and potassium). To quench your thirst after the gym, make yourself a pitcher of iced Koni Replenish Tea.

Aids in health problems: According to the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine, premium rooibos tea has been shown to aid in health problems such as insomnia, irritability, headaches, nervous tension, and hypertension. Antiaging: Rooibos fights wrinkles because it contains a neutralizing enzyme called Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), an anti-aging substance mandatory in the production of healthy skin cells. As if that weren't enough, rooibos also contains a potent antioxidant, Asphaltin flavonoid, that also fights signs of aging. Similar to the antioxidants found in green tea, rooibos tea has a few more advantages: greater amounts of SOD (like a hundred times more), it is caffeine free, and contains zero tannins, which are typical to green tea. Stomach problems: Premium rooibos is anti-spasmodic, meaning it helps to relieve stomach cramps, tension, and aid in digestion. It has also been shown to help with heartburn, constipation, stomach ulcers and nausea. If you have stomach issues, try a delicious cup of Koni Stomach Soother, a rooibos tea infused with honey, chamomile, and ginger.  Click here for the Koni Stomach Soother with Mint recipe. Depression: Due to its magnesium content, rooibos is known to sooth and calm the nerves. According to the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine, the high magnesium level in rooibos tea helps users adapt to stress. Premium rooibos tea also contains thiamine, more commonly known as vitamin B1, which has a tranquilizing effect and can increase cognitive function. Skin problems: It contains alpha hydroxy acid and zinc. Both of these are known to help soothe skin. Rooibos tea provides comfort to those with eczema, acne, sunburns and even diaper rash when applied to affected areas. Kids can drink it: Since rooibos is caffeine free, low in tannins and high in antioxidants, many mothers are sharing this delicious beverage with their children. Rooibos tea, which can be served hot or as a refreshing iced tea, is an ideal beverage choice for children as it is 100% natural and nutritious and is free of colourants, caffeine, sugars and preservatives. To ensure that you and your child have a restful night's sleep, share a pot of Koni Sleepy Time Tea or Koni Chocolate Strawberry Delight in the evening.
