HEALTH BENEFITS OF HIBISCUS FLOWER.

1) Blood pressure-lowering effects. Research suggests hibiscus helps lower high blood pressure by positively affecting the activity of a blood vessel dilator called nitric oxide. The species is also a mild diuretic, encouraging urine excretion, a mechanism that favors a lowering in blood pressure. Antioxidant activity is also believed to promote lower blood pressure levels. There are numerous clinical trials that demonstrate the antihypertensive effects of hibiscus and studies reveal that the effectiveness of the plant is strongly dependant on the amounts consumed.
2) Cholesterol-lowering properties. Both animal and human studies show that hibiscus plays a part in lowering high blood cholesterol levels. It would appear that almost daily consumption of the plant can contribute to lower LDL (bad) cholesterol and triglyceride levels, without any negative impact on HDL (good) cholesterol (Hibiscus sabdariffa L. in the treatment of hypertension and hyperlipidemia: a comprehensive review of animal and human studies).
3) Rich source of antioxidants. The red hibiscus variety is a rich source of anthocyanins, natural red pigments with antioxidant properties. The red color the flowers impart to teas and other hibiscus beverages is actually a release of anthocyanins. Other antioxidants found in hibiscus leaves are chlorogenic acid, neochlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, quercetin, kaempferol and their glycosides (Phytochemistry, antioxidant capacity, total phenolic content and anti-inflammatory activity of Hibiscus sabdariffa leaves).
Antioxidants hunt down damaging free radical molecules and prevent them from causing damage to cells and DNA. Damage buildup alters normal cell activity and may cause cells to turn cancerous by making them believe they haven’t finished their life cycle so they replicate more than necessary, resulting in cancerous formations. Antioxidants also exhibit anti-inflammatory properties.
4) Natural anti-inflammatory. The antioxidants in the red hibiscus variety used for medicinal purposes exhibit powerful anti-inflammatory properties. According to research, high inflammation levels have been linked with the onset of chronic disease in all its forms: cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, obesity, etc. Eating right and including natural foods with anti-inflammatory effects in our diet is one major step towards good health.
5) Generous source of vitamins. hibiscus provides 12 mg of vitamin C for every 100 g. Vitamin C is a potent natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant with antimicrobial and immunity boosting properties. .
According to research, hibiscus seeds and seed oil are a rich source of gamma-tocopherol (74.5%), alpha-tocopherol (25%) and delta-tocopherol (0.5%), all forms of vitamin E. In short, vitamin E is a fat-soluble nutrient and an important antioxidant with numerous health applications, including cancer prevention and treatment, heart disease management and prevention and skin care. (Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa) seed oil is a rich source of gamma-tocopherol)
