You've probably heard the ingredient "Rosehip" floating around your health blogs, your supermarket and your pharmacy for a while now, but do you actually know what it is or what it does?! Unichi, a brand that strives to bring authenticity and uniqueness through its Australian made health products, has produced a range of Rosehip products which will hopefully teach us a bit more about this curious ingredient!
"Rosehip" is the term given to the fruit of the rose plant, which forms after a pollinated rose flower has naturally fallen away. Rosehips have been used for hundreds of years by many cultures and and are among the most nutritionally packed fruits of any plant. Unichi Rosehip Extract Complex contains the most potent variety of Rosehip (Rosa Canina) along with added Vitamin C, Silica and nautral Vitamin E.
Each ingredient has been carefully chosen for its beneficial effect on the health and appearance of hair, skin and nails. In particular, the formula helps improve skin tone and texture, regenerate skin cells, and keep the skin elastic and nourished - resulting in a younger looking appearance.
Main Benefits of Rosehip Extract Complex
Improved Skin, Hair & Nails
As opposed to seed oil, rosehip fruit extract retains all the micronutrients found in the flesh of the fruit. The high vitamin C content promotes collagen and elastin production, thereby resulting in smoother, more even skin tone. Vitamin E keeps the skin hydrated, supple and elastic giving a youthful complexion. Silica is a key componenet of collagen and also transports vital nutrients to the peripheral tissues of the body, such as skin, hair and nails giving them strength and vitality.
Reduces Signs of Damage
The vitamin C, E and silica in Origins of Australia Rosehip Extract Complex stimulate the connective tissue which can assist with wound healing. The potent antioxidants in rosehips can also protect against skin damage, such as sun spots and pigmentation caused by sunlight and environmental factors. In this way, rosehip extract can help skin to retain its natural tone.
Firms and Protects Skin
The addition of silica is a key feature in this powerful formula, designed for optimal skin support. One of the biggest components of collagen is silica, so as the stresses and strains of everyday life take their toll on us, silica assists to rebuild and regenerate collagen for a softer, younger looking complexion. Unichi's Rosehip Extract Complex is an excellent convenient formulation to support skin health and appearance. The nutrients work synergistically to nourish the skin from within.
Other than the above benefits, most research has shown that rosehip can reduce pain and stiffness and improve function in people with osteoarthritis and may also help reduce cholesterol and blood pressure. So if you've been on the hunt for a natural, Australian made supplement for improving your hair, skin and nail health, you may just want to give Unichi's Rosehip Extract Complex a try!
