"Rosehips
'protect the joints from arthritis' A herbal medicine made from rosehips
may regenerate joints in people crippled by arthritis, say scientists.
Studies show it can protect the cartilage cells which facilitate joint
movement. Researchers claim the red hips - one of nature's richest
sources of vitamin C - also improve activity levels by damping down an
over-active immune system."

"Rose hips
have been an important food for all Native tribes where any kind of
roses can be found. They are extremely high in vitamin C, much more so
than oranges, for example. Dried, they keep well, and will always be
available in winter. Most health food co-ops sell them (for $25/lb or
so, another economic opportunity for tribal youth in late summers). "
