Aronia Berry

The Aronia Berry is one of the most heartiest natural healers. More commonly known as the "chokeberry", this berry contains the highest concentration of flavonoids and antioxidants than any other known natural food product.

The Aronia Berry Plant is native to eastern North America, and is a pea-sized violet blackberry with a very strong flavor.

That is quite the claim to fame!

This fruit contains vitamins B2, B6, E, C and folic acid. Some of its documented benefits include reducing infections and replecation of viruses, an extraordinary ability to fight cancer mechanisms, help with diabetes, inflammation, cardiovascular ailments, circulatory problems, influenza, and many other ailments.

As far as what to expect if you decide to drink this juice, you will find it has a very tart like flavor similar to unsweetened cranberry juice. If you do decide to drink straight aronia juice, you might want to dilute it or add sweetener.

If you look closely you will find the aronia berry all over grocery stores/markets. The most common forms would be in pie and cookie fillings, candy, yogurt, and jellies. In other countries, it is a very popular flavor for wine.
