Chokeberry pomace powder Bio Switzerland

short Product description

The Chokeberry pomace powder consists of dried pods and kernels of the aronia berries. As with most types of fruit, these contain the highest concentration of ingredients.

The pomace (what remains after the juice production) is crushed, gently dried and then carefully finely ground in the mill.

The Chokeberry berry originally comes from North America. It only became known in Switzerland around 2006.

Its valuable ingredients are the anthocyanins, the blue and red coloring agents. These occur in more or less high concentrations in soft fruit. The aronia berry tops the hit list.

Chokeberry is rich in natural antioxidants (radical scavengers) and can achieve a variety of health-promoting effects.

Chokeberry berries contains more natural vital substance OPC than grape seeds.

detailed Description

Valuable ingredients

Anthocyanins have a strong antioxidant effect and are therefore good cell protection. They can bind free radicals, which are responsible for numerous clinical pictures with increasing age. By enjoying aronia you can “dispose of” free radicals from your organism. The ingredients of aronia (anthocyanins and flavonoids) bind the reactive oxygen and nitrogen molecules. This reduces cell damage or cell degeneration.

Antioxidants

Initially free radicals are responsible for many health problems. They attack the cells and impair their function. Antioxidants can protect your cells.

Such free radical scavengers (antioxidants) are potent antiaging agents. Pollutants and environmental toxins as well as normal endogenous metabolic products, such as those produced during muscle work and sport, burden our body with free radicals.

Chokeberry berries have a particularly great potential in antioxidants.

Prevention is better than cure.

The body cannot make antioxidants on its own. We have to take this in with our food.

We find antioxidants in fruits, vegetables, coffee, tea, various spices, red wine and vegetable oils, etc.
The aronia berries top the list of healthy berries. No other fruit has such a high concentration of anthocyanins as the aronia. Compared to the very healthy blueberries, the concentration in Chokeberry is five times greater.

OCP

OPC is the abbreviation for "Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins". They belong to the group of flavonoids - a secondary plant substance. The OPC used to be grouped under the name "Vitamin P".

Today OPC is produced industrially from grape seed extracts.

In addition to grape seeds, peanuts, blueberries and cranberries also contain a large amount of the natural vital substance OPC.
Chokeberry berries are many times higher than their competitors when it comes to OCP salary.

OPC is said to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and blood-thinning effects.

Vitamins and OPC

In combination, OPC is considered to be a natural enhancer of vitamins A, C and E. The own high content of natural vitamins in aronia (A, C, E and K) is thus increased many times over.

The antioxidant potential of OPC is more than 10 times stronger than that of vitamin C and 40 times stronger than that of vitamin E. OPC also activates vitamin C and increases its antioxidant properties tenfold. Vitamins A and E are active ten times as long in the presence of OPC.

Instead of remedying a deficiency with high-dose synthetic individual compounds, it is much more sensible to consume natural products that, in addition to vitamins, also contain plenty of phytochemicals.
Chokeberry berries are made for this.
