International surfing superstar, Jordy Smith, sexy swimsuit model Roxy Louw, 5FM’s iconic DJ Fresh, masterblaster cricketing all-rounder Jacques Kallis, tennis supremo Mats Wilander and a growing list of celebrities all swear by it, and it’s currently set to take South Africa and the world by storm leading a new wave of nutraceuticals into the health spotlight.

Buchu, the previously little known herb indigenous to the Western Cape is the essential ingredient in the BuchuLife range products, scientifically researched and produced by Cape Kingdom Nutraceuticals. Packed with bioflavonoids, antioxidants and vitamins, BuchuLife products help the body to combat free-radicals (associated with aging) while enhancing general wellbeing.

Buchu’s reputation as a medicinal herb has a long and colourful history and can be traced back to the Khoisan people who used the medicinal properties of the miracle herb as a natural pain reliever and anti-inflammatory remedy for centuries. It was the Cape colonists who introduced Buchu into Europe, and news of its healing properties rapidly spread around the world, turning the little known herb into a highly sought after international commodity, resulting in it famously being acknowledged as ‘Nobles Tea’ – due to the fact that only the extremely wealthy of Europe were able to afford its recognised healing qualities. There is even evidence in the original cargo manifest of the Titanic that she was transporting bales of Buchu when she sank in 1912.

Today, the healing properties of Buchu are available in a range of scientifically researched products designed to assist in alleviating the negative effects associated with a modern high impact lifestyle. The sugar-free water range is a refreshing tonic containing essential vitamins and antioxidants. They are offered in 4 mouth-watering flavours: Natural, Lime, Cranberry and Blackcurrant. The Joint Health Capsules aid in the reduction of pain and inflammation and support joint health, whilst optimising recovery and general wellbeing. The first aid gel has potent anti-infective, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties enabling it to act as a natural antibiotic, whilst the UTI relief capsules have been shown to provide rapid relief in the treatment of urinary tract infections.

World cricket’s number one all-rounder, Jacques Kallis hydrates with Buchulife Herbal water at the high performance Transfit Gym in Claremont, undoubtedly assisting him achieve his career-best score of 224 runs during his 150^th Test Match.
