What This Is

This is a high potency aronia berry supplement providing a 4:1 concentrated extract equivalent to 2,000mg of whole aronia berry (Aronia melanocarpa) per capsule. Aronia berry, also known as chokeberry, is a North American native fruit and one of the most antioxidant rich fruits ever measured, with an ORAC value and anthocyanin content that surpasses blueberries, cranberries, and most other commonly consumed berries. Health Canada licensed and manufactured in Canada to GMP standards.

The Science

What Is Aronia Berry?

Aronia melanocarpa, commonly known as black chokeberry or aronia berry, is a small, dark purple berry native to North America. It has been cultivated and consumed for centuries by Indigenous peoples of North America and has gained significant attention in nutritional science over the past two decades due to its exceptionally high concentration of polyphenols, particularly anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, and chlorogenic acid. Aronia berry consistently ranks among the highest of any fruit measured for total antioxidant capacity.

Aronia Berry and Antioxidant Capacity

Aronia berry contains one of the highest concentrations of anthocyanins of any fruit, with levels significantly exceeding those found in blueberries, cranberries, and elderberries. Anthocyanins are the dark purple pigments responsible for aronia's deep colour and are among the most potent naturally occurring antioxidant compounds studied in nutritional science. These polyphenols help neutralize free radicals and support the body's antioxidant defence systems, helping maintain cellular integrity against oxidative stress.

Aronia Berry and Cardiovascular Health

The polyphenol profile of aronia berry, particularly its anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins, has been extensively studied for cardiovascular support. Research on aronia berry supplementation suggests it supports healthy blood vessel function, helps maintain healthy blood pressure within normal ranges, and supports a healthy inflammatory response in cardiovascular tissue. Aronia's high antioxidant content also contributes to protecting lipids and cardiovascular tissue from oxidative damage.

Aronia Berry and Blood Glucose Balance

Aronia berry contains chlorogenic acid and other polyphenols that have been studied for their role in supporting healthy blood glucose metabolism. Research suggests that aronia polyphenols may support healthy insulin sensitivity and help maintain blood glucose balance within normal ranges, making aronia berry one of the more comprehensively studied berries for metabolic health support.

Why 4:1 Extract and 2,000mg QCE

A 4:1 extract ratio means each unit of extract is concentrated from 4 units of whole aronia berry. Each capsule provides the equivalent of 2,000mg of whole aronia berry (QCE, Quantity Crude Equivalent) in a standardized, concentrated form. This potency level ensures a clinically meaningful dose of active anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, and chlorogenic acid in every capsule, far exceeding the active compound content of unstandardized whole berry products.

North American Sourced

This aronia berry supplement is sourced from North American grown Aronia melanocarpa, the native species with the highest documented anthocyanin and polyphenol content. North American aronia is grown in the natural habitat of the species, supporting optimal phytochemical expression and a traceable, regional supply chain.
