Medicinal plants, Hip

Medicinal plants are essential in a garden and have many advantages for both us and our vegetables. In addition, they are very easy to grow and very resistant to both diseases and pests.

Rosehip is the fruit of the wild rose that appears in our fields every year at the end of autumn and it is at this time when its medicinal properties are most necessary.
You can have roses grown at home but having wild roses is not advisable so it is better to go and collect them in the field at their season or buy the product in a herbalist near home.

This seed has many properties but the most important is the large amount of vitamin C that it has. Which makes it very suitable to combat winter colds. Whether in infusion or even better in jam, it is a real booster of our defenses to avoid staying in bed for a week.
Rosehip also has other less known medicinal properties such as helping to combat arthritis.
Whatever the case, it is highly advisable to incorporate it into our diet in autumn to have a calm and healthy winter.
