Blueberry
Scientific: Vaccinium myrtillus
Family: Ericaceae
Part used: Extracted fruit
Where: Changbaishan
Phyto-Nectar: Rested
Why
We extract blueberry fruits for their anthocyanidin compounds, which enriches our Rested formula with high levels of anti-oxidants and gives it a beautiful purple colour. Dietary antioxidants and anthocyanidins have been researched for their role in preventing chronic diseases as a result of free radical oxidation of lipids and other cellular components.
