Organic rose hip peels cut - vitamin bomb
No added sugar, highly bioavailable.
Rose hips are the fruits of rose plants. They are orange to reddish, small, firm and contain a large number of seeds that have small hairs. They are totally “unpopular” with intestinal worms (from cats, dogs, horses).
Our mothers and grandmothers thought highly of rose hips and used them to benefit the health of the joints, the throat and throat, for pain and for the stomach and intestines. This is due to galactolopid, a rare active ingredient that has been scientifically proven to have a positive influence on the mobility of the joints and the openness of the blood vessels.
What does the rosehip offer us?
Above all, vitamin C, this valuable antioxidant, is particularly high in rose hips (much more than in lemons) and prevents signs of aging.
Vitamin A is very important for eye health and cell function.
The organic cut rosehip peels contain a lot of galactolipids against free radicals, galactolipids help the joints to remain mobile and lower the LDL cholesterol level. It is also slightly diuretic, which relieves the strain on the kidneys.
