Importance of Polyphenols & Polymeric Anthocyanins:

  • Polyphenols are very well studied and are known to have powerful antioxidative properties
  • Antioxidants help preserve cellular and DNA health, and so may help with healthy aging
  • Anthocyanins are bright pigments that give berries their characteristic deep colors. They belong to a large group of compounds collectively known as flavonoids, which are a subgroup of an even larger group of compounds – polyphenols
