Strengthen your immune system with Saskatoon berries.
Studies indicate that fruits with high levels of antioxidants, such as the Saskatoon berry, offer significant health benefits, including protection against cancer, aging, and heart disease. These fruits help reduce cardiovascular and inflammatory conditions while boosting the immune system. According to the ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) method, Saskatoon berries are among the highest in antioxidant content, outperforming other fruits both in their fresh form and pulp. ORAC is a widely recognized method for assessing the antioxidant capacity of fruits.
