Rose-Hip Vital vs Rosehips: What Makes Us So Special

How Does Rose-Hip Vital Compare to Normal Rosehips?

As you can imagine we are asked to explain what makes Rose-Hip Vital Equine so special, and how it compares to other rosehip products, just about every day.

The humble rosehip is a true superfood. A wholefood, a fruit, packed full of 8 naturally occurring vitamins (including C, E, B1 and B6) and 23 minerals (including iron, copper, zinc and magnesium), essential fatty acids (omegas 3, 6 and 9), antioxidants and flavonoids.

Rosehips, one of natures richest sources of natural vitamin C, are typically fed to horses as a feed supplement for immune system support and for a range of other health benefits including hoof health, improved circulation and digestive function to name but a few.

 

So, what makes Rose-Hip Vital so different to other rosehip products?

The answer is simple. Our unique manufacturing processes, our effectiveness and our scientific backing.

Our patented extraction and drying methods isolate and activate a fatty acid/galactolipid (a glycoside of mono- and diglycerol) with strong, clinically proven anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. We refer to this active compound as GOPO. GOPO is exclusive to Rose-Hip Vital powder, and rosehip products lacking GOPO have not demonstrated similar anti-inflammatory benefits.

Watch this short video to find out how GOPO works:

Our patented manufacturing processes produce a vibrant orange powder that boasts a high concentration of naturally occurring vitamins and minerals from carefully selected berries grown in Scandinavia.

Supported by over 30 scientific studies, including 9 clinical trials on humans, dogs, and horses, Rose-Hip Vital is a clinically proven, plant-based natural remedy for reducing inflammation and supporting the immune system. It is used to treat inflammation, maintain healthy joints, supplement nutrition, and enhance performance. Rose-Hip Vital Equine does not swab.
