  The effect of the Vitamin C, supported by the efficacy of the Vitamin P contained in rose-hips, positively affects the permeability of capillaries and helps to prevent swelling.
  The pectin contained in the rose-hip forms a protective layer on the intestinal tract and bronchial mucous membranes and is a tested healing element in their inflammation.
  The Vitamin K contained in rose-hips supports the processes of blood clotting, the mineral salts enhance diuresis, and the tannins help to hinder the development of decay in the intestines
  The rose-hips lowers blood sugar, stimulates the formation of red blood cells, and increases the overall functioning and strengthens the immune powers of the body. Due to this, this fruit is recommended to people affected by diabetes, anemia, and mental or physical weakness.
