    Raised on Rooibos
    I'm an expat South African. Afrikaner, raised on Rooibos. Our children drink Rooibos instead of soda, its great for invalids, the elderly, insomnia, tension, add a slice of lemon and some honey and its a cold remedy. If you HAVE to drink iced tea, make it rooibos!

    Buchu is a tried and trusted home remedy. It also works very well as a soothing poultice on a sprained joint.
