What are Rosehips?
In 1936, Albert Szent-Gyorgi discovered that vitamin C works better in combination with other nutrients, such as bioflavonoids. In other words, he found evidence to support the fact that vitamin C should be considered a complex rather than a single nutrient, much like the vitamin B complex. Rosehips is the richest herbal source of Vitamin C and contains the entire C-complex. Rosehips are dried fruit of the rose, the part of a rose that develops once the petals have fallen. They are a natural source of Vitamin C and were used in Britain during World War II to prevent scurvy during a shortage of citrus fruit. In fact, Rose Hips contain substantially more Vitamin C than citrus foods. Since then, Rose Hips has been used as a source of Vitamin C and in fact, have up to 60 times the Vitamin C of citrus fruit as well as containing the bioflavonoids that aid in the absorption of Vitamin C. Rose hips are the highest concentrated herbal source of Vitamin C and contain the entire C-complex. In ad
