Does Rose Hips Help With Rose hip extracts contain polyphenols (proanthocyanidins,...?
Weak EvidenceEvidence Summary
Rose hip extracts contain polyphenols (proanthocyanidins, quercetin, tiliroside) that show antioxidant activity by inhibiting reactive oxygen species production from neutrophils in vitro (PMID 11933119). A multi-ingredient botanical formula containing rose hips reduced IL-1beta gene expression and, in genetically predisposed individuals, increased the proportion achieving CRP reduction compared to placebo (PMID 17884346). In preclinical models, rose hip compounds inhibit melanogenesis via tyrosinase suppression (PMID 21389613, 19734679), and tiliroside shows preliminary antihyperuricemic activity in mice (PMID 41097334).
