So here is what we think is the best of the best content on the Steem blockchain.
In case you were wondering how we chose posts to be featured in these curations, we favour:
- original articles
- a blend of personal stories and facts/research (either anecdotal or otherwise) to engage the reader
- good images or photos
- novel or interesting approaches to self care through natural remedies
- content that makes us go aaaaaaaaahhhhh

Not only the rose hips are used but also the flowers, thorns,stems, galls and roots.
Not only can the rose-hips can be eaten straight of the bush but the rose petals (avoid the bitter white portion)are a great to snack on. Another tasty treat is to wrap some butter in the petals or simmer them lightly in some honey.

These are just a small handful of the excellent #naturalmedicine articles that were published last week. Here is a list of some of the other amazing contributions. Please check all of them out and give them some upvote love if you think they're as awesome as we do!!
