Rooibos is recognized for its beneficial properties on digestion. In addition to relieving stomach aches and intestinal troubles, it contains powerful
antioxidants, such as aspalathin and quercetin, which help reduce digestive inflammation. A cup of rooibos provides natural and pleasant soothing.

Hibiscus Infusion
Our hibiscus infusion is a vibrant tribute to the vitality of Africa. Its beautiful pink-red color evokes a gentle and refreshing taste experience.
Hibiscus, recognized as a superfood, is rich in antioxidants and vitamin C, contributing to strengthening your immune system while helping to maintain good cardiovascular health.
Hibiscus : An African Superfood
With its tangy flavor, hibiscus is a superfood for both physical and mental health. Here are some of its benefits:
- Rich in Vitamin C: Hibiscus boosts the immune system, helping to protect the body against infections and reduce cold symptoms. By consuming it regularly, you are less likely to catch a cold or feel fatigued.
- Rich in Powerful Antioxidants: Hibiscus is packed with polyphenols, flavonoids, and vitamin C, which help combat free radicals, thereby reducing oxidative stress and protecting the body's cells.
- Cholesterol Regulation: Studies have shown that consuming hibiscus can help lower LDL cholesterol (the “bad” cholesterol) while increasing HDL cholesterol (the “good” cholesterol), thereby supporting cardiovascular health.
- Regulates Blood Sugar Levels: Hibiscus also helps stabilize blood sugar levels, making it a beneficial drink for those looking to control their blood sugar, particularly in the context of a diet aimed at preventing diabetes.
- Detoxifying Effect: Hibiscus has natural diuretic properties, which help eliminate toxins and support the proper functioning of the kidneys, thereby promoting the detoxification of the body.
- Blood Pressure: By helping to dilate blood vessels and improve circulation, it contributes to lowering blood pressure in individuals with mild to moderate hypertension.
Hibiscus, in the form of infusion or in drinks like bissap, is a true health ally, combining taste pleasure with benefits for the body and mind.
