The berry with an extraordinary anthocyanin profile
North American Origins
Native Americans knew the Aronia berry for its health and healing properties. Today, the berry is recognised as one of the richest sources of anthocyanins.
Anthocyanins
Anthocyanins ("antho-sigh-a-nins") are natural occurring plant compounds. They protect plants from environmental stressors and are responsible for the deep red, purple and blue colours of fruit.
There is increasing scientific evidence that anthocyanin-rich foods confer a wide range of health benefits. Many of these benefits stem from the anti-inflammatory support that high anthocyanin diets offer.
Berryactives' Aronia
Berryactives' Aronia has remarkable anthocyanin levels. After each harvest, the fruit is independently analysed. The high anthocyanin levels are attributed to Central Otago’s cold winters, hot summers and high UV light levels.
The berry is grown pesticide-free, frozen, then freezedried and milled to a granular powder. Freezedrying preserves the bioactivity and nutritional profile of the fresh berry.
AnthoPhen® is the brand name of this additive-free, 100% pure powdered Aronia.
