Learn about South Africa's Traditional Herbs and their Benefits

South Africa has a rich heritage of traditional herbal remedies thanks to the country’s abundance of indigenous plants known for their healing properties. With nearly 9,000 plant species found naturally in this area, it’s no surprise that many of South Africa’s traditional remedies are based on the curative properties of plants. Rooibos is a bush that only grows in the Western Cape and is said to have 50 times more antioxidants than green tea. The sour-fig plant is widespread across South Africa's coastal regions. The plant's fruit is often used to make jam while the juice of the leaves is considered to have antiseptic properties and used to treat cuts, insect bites, and sunburn.
