Frequently Asked Questions
Anthocyanins are natural
compounds in fruits and berries that give them their red or purple
color. In addition to adding color, anthocyanins are potent antioxidants
which can neutralize free radicals.† The anthocyanins in cranberries
are structurally slightly different than those found in blueberries,
cherries, and other fruits, which may explain the unique benefits of
cranberry in supporting a healthy urinary tract.†
Please describe the Patented BioShield® extended release system of ActiFruit™. How is the cranberry processed?
The cranberry in ActiFruit™ uses a patented BioShield®
extended release system to deliver nurturing bioactives throughout the
day.† The cranberry is pressed to remove the juice, which is then
concentrated. The remaining part, called the pommace, is dried and then
blended with other fibers. The concentrated juice is added back into the
fiber mixture, which now has all the parts of the whole cranberry -
skin, juice, seeds, and fiber. The fiber matrix shields the key
components from stomach acid, and the natural pectin content slows its
breakdown in the intestines and allows for a natural sustained release
of the bioactive compounds.† This process is described in US patent
6,440,467.
How does ActiFruit™ compare to cranberry juice cocktail?
Based on an independent laboratory test comparing levels of anthocyanins (a known antioxidant) in ActiFruit™
and a leading brand of cranberry juice cocktail, one chew has up to 7
times more antioxidants and only 6% of the sugar found in one glass of
juice.†
