Fruit and Floral Infusions – Soothing Rosehip

Rosehips are the ‘fruit’ of the wild rose plant providing high levels of phenolic and flavonoid antioxidants. Just 10 grams of Rosehips provide up to 200 milligrams of Vitamin C and bioflavonoid antioxidants which neutralize the damaging effects of free radicals. 

It is also known to have both laxative and diuretic properties, which can help eliminate toxins, constipation, or a weakened immune system by relieving the load on the kidneys and liver. The carotenoids and flavonoids make rosehip a powerful pain reliever, and it is also used as a herbal remedy for treatment of skin conditions, such as wrinkles, psoriasis, eczema, dry skin, and acne. 

Preferably prepared with a hint of peppermint and sweetened with stevia, it makes for a healthy and fruity tea experience
