IS THIS THE MOST ANTI-INFLAMMATORY FRUIT IN THE WORLD?

INTRODUCING THE MAQUI BERRY

As the story goes, the hunters of Patagonia were among the fiercest and strongest in the world, undefeated and independent despite waves of invasion attempts: these hunters credited their superhuman strength and stamina to a small, local berry : the Maqui.

Maqui berry (Aristotelia chilensis) is an intensely purple berry that grows wild throughout large areas of Patagonia in southern Chile.

Maqui berries are true superfruits : The harsh climate of Patagonia is credited with increasing their anthocyanin level to super-normal levels : Macqui’s ORAC score is 319,265 uMol TE per 100g. In earth talk that means Maqui is considered to be the highest antioxidant fruit on the planet!

Maqui berries taste delicious, they are sweet and bursting with flavor; What however makes them so special is their uniquely high level of particluar antioxidants called delphinidins (also found in much lower concentrations in blueberries and acai berries). Delphinidins have exceptional anti-inflammatory abilities which according to independent studies make them as effective at reducing cellular inflammation as leading pharmaceutical anti-inflammatories - but without any of the negative side effects.

Silent inflammation in our bodies is today believed to be the principal cause of premature aging and chronic disease : eating or drinking Maqui every day can therefore be a helpful ally in reducing inflammation and delaying the signs of premature aging.

For anyone fighting high blood sugar, it is also worth knowing that eating maqui berries or drinking maqui juice improves insulin sensitivity and helps stabilize blood sugar levels : eating maqui before, with or straight after a high carbohydrate meal is clinically proven to help to control blood sugar levels, keep you satisfied for longer and help prevent weight gain[i].

Through their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory abilities, Maqui berries also protects the skin from inflammation and free radical damage and promote a clear, smooth complexion...
