Product Details
Rose hips are the fruit of the rose bush. These fruits contain a variety of antioxidants, and are loaded with vitamins A and C.
Matthew Wood, famous herbalist, writes, “The rosaceae are primary remedies for reducing autoimmune heat and irritation.” It is also of particular benefit in regulating the menstrual cycle. The Rose hip also has many uses but I’ll save those for another post when they are in season.Rose hips help and support:
- the immune system, because it is high in vitamin C
- arthritis, because of its antioxidant properties
- digestive health, because it is rich in pectin, it acts like a prebiotic
- weight loss, because of the compound tiliroside, which accelerates fat metabolism and improves the body’s utilization of glucose
I grow this plant in central MN.
Comes in a 1 oz bottle come with a dropper.
I use the folk method for making all my tinctures, which uses no measurements except sizing things up with your eyes. So I put the plant material in a jar and then fill with alcohol.
Dosages -
Tinctures are meant to be used as medicine in small amounts. Add 10-20 drops to your tea, juice, water or directly into your mouth when needed.
Dosages for children are not provided in most herbals. To determine the correct dose you need to consider the size of the child, the ailment, the power of the herb you intend to use, and the adult dosage.
Young's Rule for determining dosage uses the child's age divided by twelve plus the age. The dosage for a 4 year old: 4/12+4 = 4/16 = 1/4 of the adult dose.
