Organic Dried Cranberries
Country of Origin: Canada
Ingredients: organic cranberries, organic concentrated apple juice, organic sunflower
oil.
Related to the blueberry, cranberries are a species of dwarf shrub that are made up of trailing
vines. Cranberries are rich in nutrients and contain high levels of antioxidants. Cranberries are
tart in flavour (hence why they are sweetened with apple juice).
Cranberries are fantastic to acidify the urine and help reduce symptoms of urinary tract
infections, however, as the cranberries contain concentrated apple juice, do not consume high
amounts for these purposes.
Cranberries have:
-
Some vitamin C and beta-carotene
-
High amounts of antioxidants
NOTE: As with most dried fruit it is important to increase water intake with consumption.
Also, dried fruit in comparison to fresh fruit may
have a lower vitamin and mineral content and has a higher concentration of it's natural
sugars.
