Dear Luzzet you drink this tea, it may increase your risk for heart disease. Drinking hibiscus tea daily may drop your systolic blood pressure by 7.2 points on average. Should not be taken at all during Pregnancy. Drinking it for long time may even result in Hallucinations. If you do not have any disorder to cure with this Herb, then you should not drink this tea.

Hallo
In a condition of HIV how does rossel tea helps

Ask a doctor first. HIV is a serious disease. However, I'll add here there's SOME medical evidence that Hibiscus/Roselle Inhibits a digestive enzyme in the pancreas called porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase. It is primarily linked with decreased glucose absorption (lowering blood sugar). However, some substances that inhibit this enzyme have also inhibited HIV replication. They do this most likely by reducing the formation of glycoproteins by the virus. Researchers think perhaps the proliferation of these proteins prevent the immune system from recognizing them. So the tea may also have a similar effect. That is my understanding.

Roselle tea has anti oxidants, so it can be taken by Cancer patients. However, the best remedy for Breast Cancer is Fagonia Cretica Tea, why don't you try that ? For tumors take galium Aparine tincture, 5 drops daily added to a glass of water.
