What it is

Rosehip is the fruit of the rose plant, typically harvested after the rose petals have fallen. It is known for its tart, slightly floral flavor and is often dried and ground into a powder or used to make teas and jams. Rosehips are naturally rich in vitamin C.

Why it's used

Rosehips are commonly used to add a tart, fruity flavor to beverages like teas and juices, as well as jams, jellies, and sauces. Their high vitamin C content also makes them a desirable ingredient in functional foods and supplements.

Health notes

Rosehips are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. They are a natural source of vitamin C and antioxidants, which are beneficial for immune function and skin health. While some studies suggest potential benefits for joint health and inflammation, more research is needed. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated rosehip extracts for various uses.

Allergen info

Rosehip is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
