RoseHip for Arthritis - Rose Hip Vital
Rose-Hip Vital™
Rose-Hip Vital is made from 100% pure and natural rosehips grown in Europe and Scandinavia. The deep root system, which penetrates well below the ploughing level, enables the plant to access and absorb a vast array of natural vitamins and minerals. The rosehips are dried with a special patented drying process which isolates the patented active component Galactolipid (GOPO®) which has been clinically tested to help reduce joint pain and stiffness, improve flexibility and mobility associated with Arthritis.
Backed by over 30 scientific studies including double-blind placebo controlled trials, Rose-Hip Vital is the only product in Australia which tests for the component Galactolipid (GOPO®).The result is a natural anti-inflammatory which may temporarily relieve the pain of Arthritis, Osteoarthritis and Rheumatism, presented in easy-to-swallow capsules or loose powder.

How it works:
Some white blood cells in the body, called granulocytes, are involved in the inflammatory process. They contain granules which enable the cells to ‘clean’ the inflamed Osteoarthritic joint by destroying the bacteria which are naturally found within.
However, too many of these white blood cells actually wear down the tissue cartilage, as they infiltrate the damaged joints of the Osteoarthritis patient. In large numbers, they can also release chemical enzymes and toxic free radicals, which cause damage to the cartilage in the joints.
The accumulation of these cells, combined with the release of toxic free radicals, causes further damage to the joint and pain due to inflammation ie Arthritis. The more inflamed the joint becomes, the more the white blood cells are attracted to it, so the process is self-maintaining.
The active compound in Rose-Hip Vital, Galactolipid (GOPO®), works by discouraging large numbers of white blood cells accumulating in the joint, as well as slowing down the production of toxic free radicals, thereby alleviating pain, reducing inflammation and joint damage.
GOPO
What is GOPO®?
Rose-Hip Vital is the only product in Australia which tests for Galactolipid (GOPO®).
Galacotolipid (GOPO®) (glycoside of mono and diglycerol)) is the patented compound isolated from the Rosehip, Rosa Canina L .
It's main action is that of a natural anti inflammatory and an anti-oxidant, which may help temporarily relieve the pain of Arthritis, Osteoarthritis and Rheumatism.

Scientific Research - kindly note that the scientific research detailed below is specific to Rose-Hip Vital and does not to refer to generic rosehip
Arthritis is Australia’s leading cause of disability and chronic pain.
Our ageing population shows a high incidence of Arthritis with over 3.85 million people suffering. We lose 213,000 work or school days a year due to Arthritis pain and disability with over 8.5 million visits to doctors (GPs), 2.2 million specialist visits and 1.4 million visits to other health practitioners. (source: MIS data 2000)
There is now Clinically Tested Arthritis relief
Rose-Hip Vital undertakes regular research and testing to see how many people benefit from taking it and find out their improvements. Some of the remarkable effects proven in laboratory testing include:
- reduction of leukocyte migration (anti inflammatory)
- reduction of oxidative burst response leukocytes (anti-oxidant)
- reduction of the level of the inflammatory marker CRP
- preservation of cell membrane
Dr Kaj Winther, MD, DMSci, from the department of Clinical Biochemistry, Fredricksberg Hospital, University of Copenhagen, Denmark, has been involved in researching and testing Rose-Hip for over a decade.
How Rose-Hip Vital vs. synthetic Vitamin C
Clinical trials show that Rose-Hip Vital’s natural Vitamin C is absorbed more effectively than the synthetic version due to its high concentration.
Blood levels for Vitamin C were measured 2 and 4 hours after ingestion.
AIM: Study reduction of pain and stiffness of Osteoarthritic joints to see whether Rose-Hip Vital would improve daily activities or quality of life of patients.
112 patients with Osteoarthritis of the hip, knee, neck or wrist were randomly allocated treatment with either Rose-Hip Vital or a placebo for a total of six months. In this double-blind cross-over test, Group A received 5 placebo capsules twice daily for 3 months, then switched to capsules with Rose-Hip Vital for another 3 months; vice-versa Group B.
CONCLUSION: Data suggests that Rose-Hip Vital significantly reduces pain and stiffness and augments general well-being in patients with Osteoarthritis. Results also suggest the action of Rose-Hip Vital is protracted.

Hi, I have just started using the capsules and have noticed a significant decrease in pain from arthritis in my knee. Makes work easier as I have a job where I am on my feet for up to 12 hrs. Heather, SA
“I have found Rose-Hip Vital to be quite the most excellent product for alleviating the pain of osteoarthritis (OA). I have moderately severe OA in almost every joint in my body but it is particularly bad in my knees, lower back, hands and feet. I have been taking Rose-Hip Vital now for about three months and the results have been quite dramatic. I began to notice an improvement within three weeks. Now, I no longer take any type of anti-inflammatory medication nor analgesics on a regular basis”. MK, Arncliffe, NSW
I just completed 61 years of age and I was suffering from severe knee pain for last 6 months. My local orthopaedic surgeon diagnosed that it is the starting of arthritis and most of the people in old age suffer from this disease. He prescribed some pain killers which my cardiologist did not approve as I am a heart patient also. According to him all pain killers retain water in the body. Luckily an old friend of mine who is also an orthopaedic surgeon in a small place, asked me to try Rose hip vital and my pain has completely gone and these capsules have become my daily food also. Not only had this I asked my father aged 83 years, who was suffering from severe low back pain, to try it. He also informs that his pain has completely subsided. Thanks for such a wonderful discovery. Pramod - Bangalore, India
“I cannot say enough about how much I find them a wonderful product. I am almost free of pain, arthritis and osteo, and pain in my hands and also have much improved mobility. On the days I garden, wash or vacuum, I don’t have the aches and pains I used to. The aches I used to get in my shoulders and neck are only a memory, thank goodness”. DC, Harlaxton, QLD
I have arthritis everywhere except one of my knees. When I first started taking the Rose-Hip Vital I took 5 in the morning and 5 at night then cut back to 3 in the morning and 3 at night. My pain has decreased by 70% and my over all well being has improved. This is a fantastic product which I would recommend to anyone suffering with arthritis. Kind Regards, Leslie, Managing Director

“I have had a lower back/sciatica leg problem for over 20 years with Arthritis and joint problems. Rose-Hip Vital capsules helps the joint stiffness upon waking and also helps me with joint pain. Lately I have had a lot of trouble sleeping (waking up with joint pain etc) and now I sleep right through”. MG, Padstow, NSW
Hi - Since I have taken the Rose-Hip Vital and it has taken the pain away from my hands I can use my hand and not even feel pain magic. Before I could not even hold things without dropping them also my knees, feet and elbows are much better. As I live in New Zealand I get my supplies when visiting Australia. Wish we could buy it here. Diane, New Zealand
My husband Terry was diagnosed with osteoarthritis 6 months ago and my daughter saw Rose-Hip Vital on Current Affair, so we went on the computer and the next day I went and got the tablets which Terry takes 5 a day. We then saw the powder come out and he now takes a scoop once a day and finds it better than taking the tablets.(he hates taking tablets).Overall he is pleased with the result as his fingers have settled down and has more movement and less pain which is what he has been looking for. Thankyou, Robyn, NT
