Rosehip syrup, concentrated

Rosehip syrup is a sweetened liquid made from the fruit of the rose plant. The figures here describe the concentrated syrup rather than a diluted drink. It mainly provides carbohydrate in the form of sugars, along with vitamin C. Per 100g, it contains 62g of sugars, 990 kJ of energy, 295mg of vitamin C and 0.7g of salt.

Vitamin C supports normal collagen formation and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. The sugar content is worth noting for people monitoring their sugar or energy intake, while the salt content may be relevant to those limiting salt. If the syrup is diluted, the nutrient content of the prepared drink depends on how much syrup and water are used. Full figures are in the tables below.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (9 samples, 4 brands). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.

These figures come from an older part of the dataset that is no longer updated. Original source: MW4, 1978. Values reviewed for Miscellaneous Foods Supplement, 1994.
