Edible Flowers: A Wonderful Garden for Nutrition
Edible flowers, a family to which Damask rose belongs, are promising raw materials for preventing or improving skin aging, the decline of the immune system with age, the deterioration of tissues and cells, and even for extending lifespan! The active ingredients found in these flowers - polyphenols, antioxidants, carotenoids, natural carbohydrates, etc. - help fight oxidative stress, responsible for aging of the body and degeneration of the skin. Used in food and traditional medicine, some flower extracts or key components are incorporated into health foods or skin treatments.
We control the entire production chain, from the cultivation of this French-grown rose by our exclusive supplier Rosa-Rosae, right through to its storage under high socio-environmental standards. Our rose hydrosols contain numerous biochemical components, identified and analyzed in the laboratory at each distillation. Floral waters contain no alcohol and therefore present no hepatic risk.
Unlike essential oils, they have no contraindications.
