ROSEHIP

Rosehips aren’t classified as true adaptogens, but they offer gentle adaptogenic-like effects. They help the body cope with stress and fatigue without overstimulating, making them a perfect daily tonic for resilience.

Rosehips may help manage blood sugar levels by slowing the absorption of sugars, making them beneficial for those focusing on metabolic health or preventing blood sugar spikes.

Rosehips can support liver function by promoting bile production. They also contain pectin and other compounds that aid in gently detoxifying the liver, which is central to overall vitality.

Traditionally, rosehips are seen as a gentle diuretic. They encourage urination, helping flush out toxins from the kidneys and urinary tract, which can prevent infections and support healthy kidney function.

Rosehips are believed to have a gentle calming effect, supporting stress resilience. This makes them a favorite for herbalists working on balancing emotional health and mood stability.

Apart from their very high vitamin C content, high antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties, rosehips are truly an all-around gem that is a good friend to have in the kitchen.
