Antioxidants and Aronia Berries
Most natural antioxidants come from plants and they play a crucial role in the body. Antioxidants help your body fight oxidative stress, a state that happens when there is an excess of free radicals in the body’s cells. Oxidative stress damages cells which contributes to aging and the onset of chronic diseases. Science shows that eating a diet high in antioxidant-rich foods can promote overall wellness, including a healthy immune system. Research indicates Aronia stands out as an antioxidant superstar compared to other berries, with higher aggregate amounts of polyphenols and anthocyanins compared to elderberry, acai, pomegranate, cherry, blueberry and cranberry.
