Hepatoprotective properties of rooibos tea (Aspalathus linearis) were investigated in a rat model of liver injury induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)). Rooibos tea, like N-acetyl-L-cysteine which was used for the comparison, showed histological regression of steatosis and cirrhosis in the liver
We investigated the physiological basis for tolerance of limiting P supply and for enhanced growth with simultaneous addition of N and P in Aspalathus linearis (Burm. f.) R. Dahlgren. It was hypothesised that increasing N supply would stimulate P acquisition mechanisms and enhance plant growth with
An aspalathin-enriched green rooibos (Aspalathus linearis) extract (GRE) was fed to male Fischer rats in two independent studies for 28 and 90 days. The average dietary total polyphenol (TP) intake was 756 and 627 mg Gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/kg body weight (bw)/day over 28 and 90 days,
