Rose hips contain a large range of vitamins and nutrients, which is why its popularity is growing every day. You can brew rose hips not only in a thermos, but this method is the most convenient and fastest.
Rosehip ranks first in terms of vitamin C content in its fruits. It surpasses oranges and lemons, tangerines and apples in this regard. This is explained not only by the ability of rose hips to accumulate the vitamin, but also by the absence of ascorbinase in it, which destroys ascorbic acid. Vitamin C is found not only in fruits, but in leaves and petals too. Rose hips contain carotene and vitamin P; the plant also ranks high in their content. Rose hips contain a high content of B vitamins, sugars, organic acids and folic acid, as well as tannins and pectyl substances.

Since rosehip contains vitamin C, you need to be especially careful that it is not exposed to light, as this destroys vitamin C.
When purchasing fruits, you should definitely pay attention to their appearance. They should be free of mold, black and wet spots, and brown-red or orange in color. Black and dry, crumbling fruits will not bring much benefit, since they are either very dry or very old. Store rose hips in jars or fabric bags in a dry, cool, dark place. First, put the required amount of ingredients into a thermos, then pour boiling water over it.

For those suffering from heart disease, it is recommended to mix rose hips with hawthorn when brewing. Also, very tasty and healthy decoctions are obtained by adding dried apricots or raisins. It is not recommended to add prunes - the result will be a very sour drink that will quickly spoil.
The water for preparation should not be boiling - vitamin C loses its properties at 80°C, so the temperature of boiling water must be measured.

With prolonged contact with tooth enamel, rose hips can destroy it, so after using it it is recommended to rinse your mouth or brush your teeth.
