Key ingredients and their effects
- Antioxidants: Vitamin C and flavonoids (anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins), among others, have cell-protecting and anti-inflammatory effects.
- Minerals: Contains sodium, potassium, phosphorus, copper, magnesium and zinc. Vitamins: Contains vitamin C, vitamin A and vitamin K.
- Secondary plant substances (PACs): Prevent urinary tract infections by preventing bacteria from settling in the urinary tract.
- Organic acids: contain citric and malic acid.

Health benefits
- Urinary tract infections: Works by preventing bacteria from sticking.
- Immune system: Supports the body's defences.
- Teeth: Can fight harmful bacteria in the mouth (of course only if the berries are chewed for a long time, which acts locally and not via the bloodstream. Swallowing capsules therefore has no effect).
- Cardiovascular system: Able to lower blood pressure and prevent cardiovascular disease.
- Skin: With the help of antioxidants, skin ageing can be slowed down and acne reduced.
Application and tips
- Eat: Fresh, dried, as juice or in the form of jam.
- Flavour: Unprocessed, it has a raw tartness, but is often sweet and sour.
- Quantity: Enjoy raw berries in moderation as they can be irritating.
- Medication: Be careful when taking certain antidepressants (SSRIs) as they can interfere with the absorption of medication
