Among the berries, aronia, also known as chokeberry, stands out as an antioxidant superstar. It has an ORAC value of 16,062 μ mol TE/100g, higher than that of elderberry, blueberry, blackberry, currant, red raspberry, strawberry, and cranberry. Its key polyphenol is a class of flavonoids known as anthocyanins. This blue and purple pigment in plants exhibits powerful antioxidant activity, protecting the body’s tissues against oxidative stress, and also plays an important role in cardiovascular health.
