Cranberries are one of nature’s original superfruits. They’re packed with phenolic antioxidants (an organic chemical compound) and also rich in other plant nutrients, which equates to real health benefits. Gram for gram, there are more phenolic antioxidants in cranberries than most other common fruits.¹ As well as antioxidants, cranberries contain unique compounds called proanthocyanidins (PACS) that help bolster your internal defences against certain harmful bacteria. PACS prevent bacteria from sticking to healthy cells in your body and help flush them out of your system. What makes the PACS in cranberries different from those in other foods are their extra ‘anti-stick’ potential, so they’re the perfect choice to help cleanse and purify your body.
JUST ONE GLASS A DAYSo what’s the best way to get your daily dose of cranberries? Scientific research has found cranberry juice drinks containing at least 25% cranberry juice, will provide all the benefits associated with the cranberry.2 But not all cranberry juice drinks are the same, so check the label to ensure you’re getting the best quality.
