The health benefits of rose hips

 Rose hips are the fruits that develop on the rosebushes. Rose hips contain more vitamin C per ounce than any natural source. Rose hips are anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and anti-histamine bioflavonoids that work with vitamin C. 

Bioflavonoids help improve vitamin C’s ability to strengthen connective tissue, boost immune health, promote healing and boost cellular energy. Rose hips may improve digestion, lower cholesterol, manage type 2 diabetes and increase circulation. Research has shown that rose hips can decrease inflammation and arthritis pain. 

Rose hips are commonly used with hibiscus in teas. Rose hips are also used on the skin to improve hyperpigmentation and keep your skin glowing.
