The cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) belongs to the heath family (Ericaceae) and originates from North America, although it is now also grown in Northern Europe. Cranberries have long been used as a traditional natural remedy in North American cultures for supporting the immune system. The small, round berries are bright red or pink, and distinctive for their fruity and tart flavour.
Our organic cranberries contain potent antioxidants rich in proanthocyanins. They are also a good source of provitamin A, vitamin C, potassium and sodium. These nutrients are retained in the powder as a result of gentle freeze-drying.
