Benefits

This soup is as healthy as it is tasty. The rose hips in the soup have high vitamin C. This is perfect for anyone feeling under the weather with those seasonal allergies. One hundred grams of rose hips is the equivalent of 1250 milligrams of vitamin C, which is a lot more than any orange can have. Most vitamin C supplements are made from rose hips. Consuming rose hips powder allows you to digest it more evenly as opposed to a pill that deposits on one side of your stomach and can cause an ulcer.

  • 4 cups of water
