Whole Dried Rosehips – Vitamin C-Rich Skin & Immune Tonic

Rosehips (Rosa canina), the fruit of the wild rose, are a nourishing herbal ally packed with naturally occurring vitamin C, antioxidants, and plant compounds that support immune strength, skin vitality, and joint health.

These ruby-coloured hips are prized in traditional herbalism for their ability to rebuild and restore. Rosehips are especially loved for their gentle anti-inflammatory effect, their role in collagen production, and their affinity for the skin, gut, and circulatory system.

Mild and tangy, they brew into a beautifully tart tea that pairs well with hibiscus, elderberry, or mint. Ideal for daily immune support and nourishing seasonal transitions.

Key Benefits:
– Rich in vitamin C and flavonoids
– Supports healthy skin, hair, and nails
– Anti-inflammatory for joints and tissues
– Traditionally used for colds, flu, and immune balance
– May help improve circulation and reduce oxidative stress
