Reduces Inflammation of the Skin
Hibiscus tea can lower inflammation in the body and skin. The high vitamin C content of hibiscus tea makes it a powerful antioxidant that helps reduce inflammation. Antioxidants can neutralize free radicals – unstable molecules that can damage cells, proteins, and DNA by stealing electrons from them.
The anti-inflammatory properties found in hibiscus tea can help treat certain skin conditions, such as dermatitis or eczema, characterized by redness, irritation, itching, and skin swelling. In addition, the antioxidants in hibiscus tea can help reduce the appearance of redness and swelling and soften and smooth the skin.
