Aronia

Aronia contains vitamins, minerals and trace elements

The chokeberry, also Aronia This is a small berry from the East. It surpasses all our native varieties when it comes to healthy nutrients. Therefore, it's worth getting to know this berry:

No other fruit boasts such a diverse repertoire of powerful and healthy ingredients as the chokeberry. It contains vitamins A, C, E, K, riboflavin, niacin, and folic acid, as well as the B vitamins. Along with the minerals and trace elements (calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc and iron) Aronia has virtually no competitors.

Polyphenols have a cell-protective effect

Particularly important active ingredients, which also make up the largest portion of the aronia berry, belong to the large group of polyphenols. This group of substances includes the blue-violet pigments, tannins, and flavorings of the aronia berry. These substances are said to be very healthy due to their antioxidant properties. Antioxidants act as scavengers of free radicals. Whenever we burn energy and consume oxygen in our bodies, highly reactive compounds are formed. These so-called free radicals attack our cells and genetic material. They often lead to physical wear and tear and promote cancer. Therefore, it is particularly recommended to neutralize such molecular pests with the help of antioxidants. They surround our cells like a filter, protecting them and promoting regeneration.

OPC - a useful bitter substance for our body

An important component that the berry has in large quantities is OPC (Vitamin P). It belongs to the family of colorless bitter substances and can, among other things, have anti-inflammatory effects.

OPC occupies a special position among vitamins, as it is one of the most important, along with vitamin C, and possesses an above-average cell-protective potential against free radical attacks. The antioxidant (cell-protective) effect of OPC against free radicals is 18-20 times stronger than that of vitamin C and even 40-50 times stronger than that of vitamin E. Furthermore, OPC enhances the effects of vitamins C, E, and vitamin A by a factor of 10. Unlike these vitamins, OPC binds directly to the fibers of the body's proteins collagen and elastin, thus rejuvenating our skin and connective tissue.

This isn't just good for wrinkles. Taking OPC promotes the elasticity of blood vessels, as the fibers nestle in the veins. OPC is particularly helpful for cardiovascular problems, making veins more elastic and supplying organs with oxygen-rich blood. With regular intake, the resistance of blood vessels also triples.
