Rose petals are known to be high in vitamin C, and also contain vitamins A, B-3, D, and E, as well as bioflavonoids, minerals, plus malic and citric acid. These nutrients are the reason why many herbalists use rose medicine to clear toxins and heat from the body, and relieve fluid retention or congestion. Roses provide healthy antioxidant and anti-inflammatory flavonoids and cancer-fighting compounds.
Physically Rose creates “movement” in the body, so it can be used to help relieve heavy menstrual periods caused by uterine congestion and menstrual pain.

Rose tincture stimulates the immune system, helps fight infections, soothes mucous membranes, and can help to relieve colds and flus. It has a mild diuretic effect as well as a natural gentle laxative.
