What is Rose Hip? Rose hip is the nutritious ‘superfruit’ of the wild rose species Rosa canina, and has long been revered as an excellent source of vitamin C. It also contains naturally powerful flavonoids, nutritious fatty oils, tannins and polyphenols, which has made rose hip a popular choice for beauty products. It’s almost impossible to drink enough rose hip tea to ensure a health benefit, so a daily supplement in tablet form is an easy way of ensuring a good dose of its nutrients. Why is ours better? Our vegan Rose Hip tablets contain only the very highest quality natural extract of rose hips. Each one-a-day tablet provides the equivalent of 5,000mg of whole rose hips. We’ve included vitamin C, which is involved in the process of producing collagen, needed to form cartilage – the flexible tissue that protects your bones at the joint. Vitamin C also helps protect your cells from oxidative damage, maintains skin health and supports the immune system. Who is this for? Rosehip extract tablets are for those who enjoy an active lifestyle and want to look after their cartilage, bones and immune health*. *Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system and to normal collagen formation for the normal function of bones and cartilage. Complementary products Rose hip tablets are regularly taken together with glucosamine supplements. Optiflex Glucosamine HCl 1,000mg has been a firm favourite with our customers for nearly twenty years. Our patented glucosamine HCl is suitable for vegetarians and vegans; it comes from a sustainable corn-based source and is free from shellfish and associated allergens.
