Are rose hips okay?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I would like to make some rose hip tea, but I forgot if they're safe or not. I can't see why not, but most sources online say that it isn't recommended. They also don't state why - so I'm guessing it is because it has not been studied.

I've eaten them during pregnancy.  They're like tiny apples, I don't see what would be wrong with them.

It may be that they are not recommended because they have high amounts of Vitamin C, but I don't think it's THAT high. I'm pretty sure rose hips are fine during pregnancy so long as you aren't eating them all day long. Making a nice tea is okay as far as I know. But yeah, no studies have been done so it's probably safest to just not use them at all.
