Rosehip is a popular natural remedy that has been used for centuries to treat a variety of ailments.
Recent research has shown that rosehip may be beneficial for heart health.
A study published in the journal Phytotherapy Research looked at the effects of rosehip on heart health. The study included 31 people who were randomly assigned to either a rosehip beverage or a control group. The rosehip beverage contained 40 grams of rosehip powder and 31 grams of fiber.
The results of the study showed that the group that drank the rosehip beverage had significant reductions in blood pressure, total cholesterol, and LDL (bad) cholesterol, compared with the control group. The rosehip beverage also improved the ratio of HDL (good) cholesterol to LDL (bad) cholesterol.
The researchers concluded that rosehip may be beneficial for heart health. They suggested that the fiber content of the rosehip beverage may have contributed to the beneficial effects on cholesterol levels.
The study was limited by its small sample size and short duration. Further research is needed to confirm the findings of this study.
