Rosehip juice
It was chosen as an ingredient of Wonderup because: the high content in Vitamin C facilitates the absorption of all the other active ingredients of the natural components of Wonderup.
Besides, it also contains bioflavonoids, ie. phytoestrogens, that rebalance the natural production of female hormones (estrogens), which are 'caught' by the receptor sites of the mammary glands in the breast as food for their development.

C vitamin
Since Vitamin C (also known as ascorbic acid) cannot be directly synthesyzed by man (unlike animals), it must be introduced either with food, with a proper nutritional intake, or with dietary supplements, in cases when the diet is lacking in Vitamin C as often occurs.
(The Western lifestyle, industrial and environmental pollution, the influence of electronic and electric devices, and cigarette smoke are all factors which increase our need of Vitamin C so that supplements are practically necessary also for the healthiest people!).
Properties of Vitamin C :
* Boosts immune system and defences. It fights any infection, from common colds to flu to viruses.
* Helps combat stress and fatigue. Makes an excellent tonic for exhaustion. Useful for convalescence.Can act like an antihistaminic making your own naturally produced cortisone work better.
* It is an excellent antioxidant. Has an antitoxic and antipollution effect. Vitamin C is the cleansing vitamin, it detoxifies teh body from foreign harmful substances.
Smokers should know that they consume 25 mg of Vitamin C for every cigarette. Rosehip thus supplies the proper quantity of Vitamin C "burned" with cigarette smoke, and also helps get rid of nicotine dependence.

* Enhances the absorption of iron from intestines.
* Controls the level of cholesterol in blood.
* Vitamin C contributes to hemoglobin and red-blood-cell production in bone marrow.
* Makes vitamin B9 (folic acid) active.
* Elderly people have a great need of Vitamin C (it prevents cross-linking, and, being an antioxidant, helps keep tissues young and healthy, protecting them against the attack of free radicals, the main factors in the ageing process).
* Helps in the healing of wounds and is very useful also in boils since it facilitates the formation of connective tissue (helps form collagen in connective tissue)
