It’s time for some natural, preservative-free detox tea

We all feel tired and drained from time to time. Often, simply taking a moment to relax and sip on a soothing cup of tea is what we need to bounce back. If you have been experiencing fatigue and low levels of energy for long periods of time, however, it might be a sign that…your body needs a detox…
Go ahead, breathe a sigh of relief. At Rooibos Rocks we know you’re secretly pleased that we didn’t just say “it might be a sign that you’re getting old”.
Rooibos Rocks detox

The solution

We’ve helped you identify the possible cause of your lethargy but what’s the best solution?… Find a detox/cleansing product, maybe?
Turns out reaching for some special detox/cleansing product may not be your best bet after all...
Did you know: Several commercially sold detox/cleansing products contain ingredients that are either illegal or considered harmful. As a result, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has had to take legal action against the companies selling such products.

So what else can you reach for? Well...all-natural, caffeine free and antioxidant rich Rooibos tea of course! It is a natural diuretic which may assist in flushing out toxins from your body. Being high in anti-oxidants means it may also protect your cells from free radical damage.

Combine Rooibos with other wholesome and antioxidant rich ingredients and you’ll have a detox tea that really packs a punch. We would like to share a recipe for one such tea with you, in the hopes that it will help get your fatigued-self rocking and rolling again, in no time.
