Rich in Vitamin C
Rose-hips are best known as one of the richest plant sources of Vitamin C. During world war ll when there was a shortage of citrus fruits in the UK the British government organised the harvesting of as many rose-hips as possible as a substitute source of Vitamin C. This led to a generation of children growing up with a daily spoonful of rose-hip syrup.
Galactolipids
Apart from Vitamin C, rose-hips also contain other vitamins, pectin, tannins, flavonoids, carotenoids, and galactolipids. Galactolipids are found in cell membranes and have formed the basis of a number of different studies.
One particular galactolipid "GOPO" is of particular interest and has been subject of considerable research.
