With prehistoric evidence of use in the pile dwellings of Switzerland, rose hips are among some of the oldest beneficial botanicals known to man. Old-Icelandic mythology touts their beneficial properties, and ancient Romans propagated their use to help with various issues from toothaches to kidney support to digestive health. More recently, rose hips were used by the British during World War II. As citrus fruits were in short supply, rose hips became a popular source of vitamin C, and Britons made them into syrup to nourish children. Traditional uses include supporting the immune, digestive and nervous systems, while more recent research suggests support for joint health.
