Question

Is red tea good for health?

Answer 1

Red tea, sometimes called Rooibos tea, is not made from the tea plant. The teas that are made from the tea plant are famous for having lots of healthy antioxidants, but Rooibos does not have these levels. Even so, it is a fine source of antioxidants of a slightly different type, and it is low in caffeine. So all in all, drinking red tea is good for your health.

Answer 2

This site discusses the health benefits of teas. Red tea has no proven benefits thus far. That does not mean they do not exist, just that they have been proven if they do exist.
