How to choose rosehip
The selection holds dried rosehips, syrup, tea and oil. The hips and the tea are brewed, the syrup is added to drinks or taken by the spoon, and the oil is either a food oil or a cosmetic one.
What the selection holds
- Hips – dried rosehips, whole or crushed, for brewing.
- Syrup – rosehip syrup; the serving is given on the pack.
- Tea and drinks – herbal and berry teas with rosehip, tea balls and drinks.
- Oil – unrefined oil from rosehips.
What to check on the pack
- Whole or crushed hips: crushed ones brew faster; the amount and the time are on the pack.
- Syrup: check how much sugar it contains – the nutrition information shows it.
- Tea: in blends rosehip is one ingredient of several; its place in the ingredient list shows how much of it there is.
- Oil: check what it is for – food or cosmetic use – and how long it keeps once opened.
Use food supplements and syrups in the amount given on the pack; a food supplement is not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet. Test cosmetics on a small area of skin before first use. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication or prone to allergies, consult a doctor.
