Hibiscus flowers, also known as roselle, are a popular herb in traditional medicine and cuisine. With dark red flowers, hibiscus contains many antioxidant compounds, such as anthocyanins, which help protect cells from damage and support cardiovascular health by reducing blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
Tea made from hibiscus flowers has a mild laxative effect, improves digestion, and enhances the immune system due to the presence of vitamins and minerals. In addition to brewing tea, hibiscus flowers are also used to make jams or as a seasoning in various dishes, providing a unique flavor and high nutritional value.
