Rosehip fruits are known for their high content of vitamin C, making them a valuable resource for supporting immunity, especially in cold weather.
They also contain a multitude of other vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that contribute to improving overall health and preventing various diseases.
Rosehip is rich in B vitamins, including B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), and vitamin E, known for its antioxidant properties.
It contains potassium, magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, and iron.
Nutritional Value
The glycemic index (GI) of rosehip is relatively low and can vary depending on the method of preparation and form of consumption, but it usually does not exceed 50.
In its fresh form, rosehip contains about 14g of carbohydrates per 100g of the product, which may be too much for a strict keto diet.
However, in the form of tea or infusion, where carbohydrates are practically absent, rosehip can be included in the diet without risking ketosis disruption.
