SunnRooibos beverage is made from a single plant ingredient - it's not a tea, it's a legume. Rooibos is a natural organic plant, mulched and packaged in an unbleached teabag which easily infuses with water. Free of additives, it contains no sugars, pesticides, preservatives, chemicals or dyes. Sunnrooibos beverage is beneficial and safe for everyone to enjoy all day everyday. Unlike teas, it is caffeine free, very low in tannic acid and contains absolutely no oxalic acid, which are factors contributing to dehydration. Mixed with water rooibos becomes a brick red color resulting in a pleasant tasting beverage without sweeteners.
SunnRooibos boasts a long list of medical evidence indicating health and wellbeing bonuses for those that use it regularly. Water is not enough, it's purified and treated; sports drinks are full of additives and sugars -- SunnRooibos is a choice for natural, all day hydration. It naturally contains physiologic levels (naturally occurring levels in plants and animals) of the important electrolytes sodium and potassium, and the important minerals calcium, copper, manganese, magnesium and zinc. Using throughout the day poses no risk of overloading on salt. Due to its properties, rooibos is a popular fluid replacement for athletes in South Africa where it is grown.

SunnRooibos is a non-bitter tasting beverage that can be enjoyed throughout the day without adding a single calorie making it ideal for those with a calorie restricted diet yet contributes antioxidants. Recent research into causes of aging points to the increased presence of free radicals - "free radicals attack healthy cells and the resultant accumulated damage contributes to...the decline of the immune system." The high antioxidant level of SunnRooibos combats free radical accumulation, much as is the case with green tea, yet with none of its negative attributes and side effects associated with frequent daily use of tea and coffee.
SunnRooibos actively takes into account all the emerging information referenced above, placing rooibos in a category of food and drink (classified as such by the FDA) making it the beverage of choice for a nation of increasingly health conscious consumers.
