Cranberry Extract (Powder)
Cranberry Powder is from Canada and made from the cranberries which have been dried into a powder. Cranberry Powder offers an astonishing array of phytonutrients and antioxidants and is packed with micro nutrients including quercetin and quinic acid. Among these phytonutrients are phenolic acids, anthocyanins, flavonoids and triterpenoids.
Cranberries are also high in antioxidants and offer significant levels of proanthocyanidins, antioxidant components which may help eliminate free radicals and to avoid damage to cells in addition to supporting healthy functioning of the urinary tract and kidney functioning. Cranberry Powder may also help to maintain the health and vitality of the skin. As an excellent source of vitamin C, dietary fiber, manganese and vitamin K.
Cranberries are high in antioxidants and loaded with polyphenols. When applied topically directly onto the skin, antioxidants are able to combat free radicals that can age the skin prematurely and lead to fine lines, wrinkles and the breakdown of collagen.
In addition to an impressive antioxidant punch, cranberries are also:
- Rich in Vitamin A. Their anti-inflammatory properties make cranberries suitable in treatments for acneic skin. You may also be familiar with vitamin A as the source of my favorite anti-aging ingredient, retinoids.
- High in Vitamin E Also known as tocopherol, vitamin E is a multi-tasker, working as a potent antioxidant to fight free radicals, protect the skin from UV damage, and strengthen the skin’s barrier system by preventing water loss.
- High in Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs).
