African Red Tea Imports (ART) is pleased to announce the addition of two major new products to their outstanding line of Rooibos based organic and kosher products. Sutherlandia Frutescens, known in South Africa as Cancer Bush, and Sceletium Tortuosum, a plant with recorded usage dating back to the 1600s, are now available through the Los Angeles based importer.

Sutherlandia Frutescens has long been regarded as the most profound and multi-purpose medicinal plant in South Africa and is proven to powerfully assist the body-mind-energy system. Used as a treatment for cancer, Sutherlandia has also been highly effective in treating HIV as well as wasting from AIDS and TB. Sceletium Tortuosum, a rare plant successfully cultivated on a limited basis, is being used by medical professionals with excellent results to relieve anxiety and depression in patients with little or no adverse side effects. Sceletium also helps relieve symptoms from menopause and works as a support mechanism for smoking cessation.
