Try the Nourishing Hub Maqui Berry Raw Cheese Cake, full of super foods and antioxidants. Antioxidants help to fight free radicals that cause cellular damage and premature ageing. Maqui berries have been shown to have particularly high levels of antioxidants dues to their extra oxygen molecules. Maqui Berry outperformed all other fruits for ORAC values and have the highest antioxidant value of any fruit - even higher than the beloved Acai (confirmed by Brunswick Laboratories).
2. I'm in love again
As most of you probably know by now, I have a bit of a love affair with super foods! I
do have some of my trusted favourites but I'm always open to trying something new.
So I have fallen in love again, this time with Maqui Berry. Call me superficial but part of
me has fallen purely for it's looks - the most beautiful deep purple colour
that illuminates any dish it is added to (smoothies, cakes, chia pudding). Thankfully
there is much more to Maqui Berry than just it's looks - it has plenty of nutritional
benefits to boast about and is just delicious!

3. Maqui Berry - the most beautiful superfood!
Maqui Berry (also called the Chilean Wineberry) is yet another South American
Superfood, this one originates from the Patagonian region on Chile. Similar to Acai
berries and blueberries, Maqui berries contain anthocyanin (which I have mentioned in
my Black Rice article previously). Anthocyanins are the red, purple or blue pigments
found in plants, these pigments act as powerful antioxidants.
Antioxidant Properties
Antioxidants help to fight free radicals that cause cellular damage and
premature ageing. Maqui berries have been shown to have particularly hight levels of
antioxidants dues to their extra oxygen molecules. Have you noticed that there are lot
of super foods out there claiming their super antioxidant powers? You might
be asking how Maqui Berry measures up. The best way to measure the antioxidant
content in food is by using the ORAC scale.
ORAC Values
ORAC stands of Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity and is a unit measurement
for antioxidants. It is believed that foods with the highest ORAC value will help
to neutralise free radicals. ORAC test reports from Brunswick Laboratories have shown
the Macqui Berry yielded 6,120 per gram - so what does this mean? It means that in
these studies Maqui Berry outperformed all other fruits for ORAC values and has
the highest antioxidant value of any fruit - even higher than the beloved
Acai (confirmed by Brunswick Laboratories).
