    I heart rosella confit

    February 19, 2009

    The boyfriend’s mum made a jar of organic Rosella confit for me.

    It was supposed to be super healthy (and made with love) so I googled to see what properties it has -

    Organic rosella flowers are super fruits and  chockful with antioxidants. The levels eclipse the usual antioxidant fruits like blueberries, cherries and cranberries.

    Rosella has certain therapeutic properties. Using it internally has been reported to have the following benefits:-

    (a) soothes colds

    (b) opens blocked nose

    (c) clears up mucous

    (d) astringent

    (e) promotes proper kidney function

    (f) helps digestion (good for weight loss)

    (g) general tonic

    (h) diuretic

    (i) helps reduce fever

    (j) anti-cancer agent

    I feel the lurve :)
