About Product

Organic Rosehip powder is derived from the seed pods of wild rose bush, known as Rosa Canina.

This plant is native to Europe, North Africa, and parts of Asia, and it has been used for centuries by various cultures for its nourishing and culinary benefits.

In Europe, rose hips have been used in teas, jams, and syrups, while in some parts of Asia, they have been dried and ground into a powder to be used as an ingredient in traditional dishes.

Rosehip powder is also known for its vitamin C content, making it popular.

The use of rose hip powder dates back to the 16th century. It was used by the ancient Greeks and was thought to be used as a tonic during the Middle Ages.

In the 19th century, the rose hip was widely used in Europe due to its concentration of Vitamin C. Today; it is widely available in many health food stores.

Constituents of Rose Hips include:

Minerals: Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Zinc, Copper, Manganese
Vitamins: Vitamin C, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Pantothenic Acid, Vitamin B-6, Folate, Choline, Betaine, Vitamin A (RAE), Beta & Alpha carotene, Cryptoxanthin beta Vitamin A (IU), Lutein & Zeaxanthin, Lycopene, Vitamin E, Beta Tocopherol, Gamma Tocopherol, Delta Tocopherol, Vitamin K
Phytochemicals: Catechins, Flavonoids, Isoquercitrin, Leucoanthocyanins, Malic Acid, Pectins, Polyphenols, Quercetin, Tiliroside

This product is 100% natural and minimally processed. Taste, smell, texture, and color vary from batch to batch. Due to its nature, this powder tends to clump.

Rose Hip Powder - Organic

Good Vit C source

Rosehips Powder is a great vitamin C source rather than using synthetic. Also if you mix it with certain fruits in a smoothies, you can come up with surprising flavors such a chocolate (without added cacao).
