 note = {The leaves of rooibos, a plant which only grows in the Republic of South Africa, are used to prepare a non-caffeine herb tea having pharmacological activities. We investigated the effect of rooibos tea on the autonomic nervous function and subjective mood.
The subjects, 22 healthy adult females, were given rooibos tea and the following physiological parameters were measured, blood pressure, heart rate at low frequency (LF) and high frequency (HF), and salivary amylase. The profi le of mood states (POMS) test was obtained to analyze the psychological condition, and the Uchida-Kraepelin test was used to load stress for 30 minutes. One control group was given plain hot water and the other, green tea (gyokuro). Rooibos tea significantly reduced salivary amylase activity (p<0.01), and alleviated “Depression-Dejection” in POMS. This suggested that rooibos tea has a relaxation effect towards stress.
Analysis of the scent component of rooibos tea leaves by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) revealed the presence of guaiacol and geranylacetone.},
