Aronia Berries

Studies have shown that antioxidants help reduce the risk for cancer, heart disease, inflammation, diabetes, bacterial infections and neurological diseases in humans. They also slow the aging process. Antioxidant levels in food are measured by Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC). 

Immune support - Aronia was used to slow the spread of flu virus, and other pathogenic organisms in vitro. Valcheva-Kuzmanova S, Russev V, Bojkova K, Belcheva A. Study of natural Aronia melanocarpa fruit juice for antibacterial and antiviral activity Scr Sci Med. 2003;35:21-3. In vitro study.

Acai Berries

Studies have shown that certain compounds in acai—namely the polyphenolic compound—can help to reduce the development of malfunctioning cells by 86%, which is great for the immune system.

Acai has a strong detoxifying capacity, which It is also a good source of fibre that helps keep you regular.

Acai has been shown to reduce cholesterol, most likely due to the plant sterols. Cholesterol-like compounds found in fruits, vegetables, nuts, and grains. They prevent the absorption of dietary cholesterol by the body.

Mix one teaspoon (5gms) of powder with water, or mix with milk or a smoothie.

Anti-inflammatory benefits – a study shows the anti-inflammatory power of Aronia. “ the anti-inflammatory effect of 100 mg Aronia extract was as strong as that of 10 mg prednisolone”, ”The anti-inflammatory action of Aronia extract was stronger than that of either quercetin or anthocyanin administered alone.

A slightly larger human study was published in 2018 in Clinical Nutrition. Researchers gave forty healthy women between the ages of 21 and 27, 200 grams of acai pulp daily for four weeks. Eating the acai boosted the women’s “good” HDL cholesterol metabolism, which protects the heart. Additionally, they experienced an increase in antioxidant activity.

Probiotics

Probiotics are live microorganisms that can be consumed through fermented foods or supplements. 

Probiotics are important for health and the immune system, promotion a healthy balance of gut bacteria and have been linked to a wide range of health benefits.

Another study followed children of women who took probiotics during pregnancy. Those children had an 83% lower risk of developing eczema in the first two years of life.
