Rose-Hip
About rose-hip and GOPO®
GOPO®, the galactolipid compound in GOPO® Joint Health, is derived from Rosa Canina, a rose-hip sub-species commonly known as the dog-rose. It is a climbing wild rose species native to Europe and flowers from late spring to mid-summer. The flowers mature into an oval red-orange fruit, or ‘hip’ during early to mid-autumn. Rose-hips contain vitamins, pectin, tannins, flavonoids and carotenoids as well as vitamin C and galactolipids.
