All About Rose Hips | Superfruit of the Rose

This is a video all about the edible and medicinal pseudo fruits of the rose. Rose hips are extremely high in vitamin c and antioxidants and have been used for millennia as a food source and medicinal herb. Rose hips can be brewed into herbal teas and made into syrups, jams, jellies and marmalades. Rose hips are a wonderful wild edible food that can be foraged in the fall and hold well into the winter months. They can also be grown in the garden and will begin to form after the beautiful flowers of the rose wither away. In this video we talk a little on how to identify rose hips, their traditional uses throughout history, their nutritional content, some studies that have been done with them and some ways that you can eat them, craft them into remedies and use them for healthy skin.
