What do green tea, blueberries, elderberries and pomegranates have in common?

Each of these foods is an antioxidant powerhouse – helping to neutralize harmful "free radicals" that can lead to many serious diseases.

A group of plant chemicals known as polyphenols, including epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), take the credit in green tea. When compared to 40 other fresh fruits and vegetables, researchers at the USDA chose blueberries #1 in anti-oxidant activity. Anthocyanin -- the pigment that makes the blueberries blue -- is responsible for this major health benefit. Elderberries have potent anti-viral activity and pomegranates round out the top-antioxidant fruit trio.

The most powerful way to consume these super-foods is in the form of a beverage made from concentrated extracts. In addition to the 15x potency – the taste is superb!
