Aronia Berries
The aronia berry or chokeberry is commonly used to make juice.
Along with the bilberry, cranberry, and other fruits and fruit juices, the chokeberry has several healthful properties. A 2004 animal-modeled study showed that the antioxidant effects of chokeberry extract had a "gastro protective" effect in treating acute gastric hemorrhagic lesions in rats, suggesting it might be an effective natural treatment for severe stomach problems in humans, including ulcers. A 2003 study has provided preliminary indication of defense against colon cancer. If people would incorporate more fruit into their diet, and especially such high-antioxidant phenolics in fruits and fruit juices, as can be had from acai berries, blueberries, cranberries, chokeberries et al, they might actually obtain many of the benefits they need! Native Americans used these berries for medicinal purposes, dyes for clothing, and for preserving meats and other foods. Aronia berries have been proven to: • improve circulation • strengthen blood vessels • suppress viruses • act an anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-carcinogenic within the human body.
