In Stock and Ready To Ship!!
Rosehips develop on wild roses as the flowers drop off. The rosehip, also called the rose haw, is actually the fruit of the rose. They are one of the most concentrated sources of vitamin C available, which has led to rose chips being included in many common cold preventives and remedies.
While the efficacy of vitamin C in preventing the common cold has been questioned, there's no doubt about the beneficial effects of vitamin C. In addition to C, rosehips also contain A, D and E, as well as antioxidant flavonoids that may reduce the effects of aging and help prevent cancer. All this is wrapped up in the tart-sweet taste of the miniature fruits. They can be used to make jelly, jam, soup or oil.
During World War II, the British government used collected rosehips to make rosehip syrup as a source of vitamin C to replace citrus fruits that were impossible to get.
