Rozip: 60 capsules

Product Information

We all know that roses are beautiful. But, did you know they are good for your health too? Rose hip (also spelled rosehip) is the fruit of the rose bush and one of nature's richest sources of the antioxidant vitamin C, an important nutrient that our bodies need every day.

Vitamin C is of course widely known for preventing and treating many types of colds and flu. But it is also used to improve the way the body absorbs iron, lowering high blood pressure, preventing loss of cartilage, and slowing the progression of Osteoarthritis. When taken with vitamin E (also found in rosehips), it can even help to prevent sunburns.

Rosehips are such an excellent source of vitamin C that during World War II many families were heavily encouraged through letters to The Times newspaper, articles in the British Medical Journal, and pamphlets produced by a dietitian working for Great Ormond Street Hospital for Sick Children to gather wild-grown rose hips to make vitamin C syrup for children. This was because German submarines were sinking many commercial ships making citrus fruits from the tropics very difficult to import.

As if all the benefits of the vitamin C found in rosehips aren't enough they also contain plenty of other nutrients that are vital to healthy living such as vitamins A, B2, B3, E and K, and a naturally occurring chemical that gives fruits and vegetables their red color called lycopene. Lycopene is another important and strong antioxidant and is an integral part of LDL (low density lipoprotein) levels.

Antioxidants protect us against free radicals. A Norwegian investigation shows that rose hips contain the highest amounts of total antioxidants among fruits and vegetables. And, a December 2006 issue of MailOnline reported that Biochemist Dr Kaj Winther, from Frederiksberg Hospital in Copenhagen, Denmark, who has a special interest in rosehips, said: 'There's emerging evidence that the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant compounds in rosehips might have quite a wide therapeutic effect. The preliminary findings are very exciting.'Due to the variety of nutrients found in this amazing, all-natural, herbal supplement, rosehips provide a vast array of positive health benefits. By taking just 1 capsule 3 times per day you can possibly reduce symptoms associated with Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoarthritis, Crohn's disease, Celiac disease, and Gallbladder disorders. Rosehips can also be good for easing symptoms associated with stomach disorders such as stomach spasms, ulcers, diarrhea, constipation, and lower urinary tract and kidney disorders. And all this is still only covering a small portion of all the ailments that rosehips can benefit.

Arthritis sufferers are taking the biggest notice of the wonders of this great herbal supplement. Did you know that according to the website arthritiscare.org.uk there are 10 million people in the UK alone (1 in 5 adults) suffering from at least one of the 200+ different types of arthritis? The most common forms of arthritis are Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis. Osteoarthritis is a non-inflammatory form of arthritis and is usually diagnosed by an X-ray. Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory form of arthritis where the immune system attacks the joints and is often diagnosed by a blood test.

In the 19 May 2008 issue of The Telegraph, it was reported that rosehips may (for some) be more effective than painkillers at easing the pain of arthritis sufferers! Imagine that for a moment… even though all medications and vitamin supplements work differently for different people, there is a chance that you can eliminate the pain from your arthritis with the help of a small, all-natural, herbal supplement.

When ordering your supply of Rozip, we invite you to also try Glucosamine & Chondroitin. While Rozip is great for boosting your immune system and providing relief of joint pain and stiffness, Glucosamine & Chondroitin is more targeted towards the overall health of your joints.
