The WONDERFUL ACTIVE INGREDIENTS IN ROOIBOS
Flavonoids Polyphenols
Flavonoids are one class of polyphenols found in rooibos. The names of the flavonoids in rooibos include: aspalathin, nothofagin, quercetin, rutin, isoquercitrin, orientin, isorientin, luteolin, vitexin, isovitexin and chrysoeriol. Specifically, orientin is an effective free-radical scavenger that may reduce cellular changes associated with cancer. Luteolin and quercetin are also being researched for their role in cancer prevention.
Aspalathin Polyphenols
Another valuable polyphenol in rooibos is called aspalathin. It is notable that the only natural source of aspalathin is rooibos tea. Numerous studies on aspalathin in recent years have revealed the antioxidant properties of aspalathin relating to skin healing and tumor prevention
Phenolic Acid Polyphenols
The phenolic acid polyphenols, which are in rooibos, include caffeic acid, protocatechuic acid, syringic acid, ferulic acid, vanillic acid, p-hydroxybenzoic acid and p-coumaric acid. Perhaps the most notable of these is caffeic acid, which may be as potent as aspalathin in its antioxidant power. In one cup of rooibos tea, 60 to 80 mg of polyphenols may be present.
