Product Description
Antioxidants are important to our bodies because they can protect us from the undesirable effects of free radicals and help to slow down the aging process. In-fact, blueberries have been found to have the highest antioxidant level of any other fruit. Anthocyanin, on the other hand, are responsible for giving nature its vibrant colours and they are present in every fruit and vegetable that have colour. Anthocyanin are the phytochemical responsible for changing the colours of the leaves from green to red, orange, purple, yellow and more. Hence, the darker the berry, the higher the concentration of antioxidants.
