Blueberries continuously receive top scores on ORAC tests, which measure the antioxidant levels in foods.A Rare Source of PhytonutrientsOur Organic Freeze-Dried Blueberry Powder contains a unique combination of phytonutrients that are rarely found in one food source. One of the most potent phytonutrients is anthocyanin, the substance that gives blueberries their dark, blue pigment. This super nutrient plays a critical role in the health of the vascular system. Anthocyanin improves the structure of veins, enhances capillary integrity, and stabilizes the collagen tissue in the body's cells. Anthocyanin works effectively to inhibit enzymes from cleaving collagen, and provides a strong cross-link of fibers that support a healthy collagen complex. This can be a wonderful relief for those who suffer from varicose veins.Our Organic Freeze-Dried Blueberry Powder is a great source of the phytonutrient, anthocynadin, which neutralizes free radical damage to cells. Anthocynadin helps the body to fight a variety of illnesses, including cataracts, glaucoma, hemorrhoids,, ulcers, and heart disease.Blueberries have been shown to support healthy eye function and to strengthen the cardiovascular system.Our Organic Freeze-Dried Blueberry Powder is rich in resveratrol, a phytonutrient found in grapes, wine, and some berries.

Each bag has a thin metal lining, which serves as a very effective barrier to light, oxygen, odors, flavors, moisture, and bacteria.While printed plastic bags with clear windows may look beautiful, studies have shown that the toxins contained in the plastic are absorbed by food that is in direct contact with the plastic.
