For men and women who like tasty foods and don’t feel like giving them up, Roselle should be added to their diet. Why? According to a recently published study, Hibiscus decreases the production of amylase, an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch into sugars.

In addition to that, unlike drugs, it does not cause good cells to self-destruct and only targets cancerous cells specifically.
