Nature’s Root Organic Maqui Berry Powder is an all-natural superfood supplement derived from the Aristotelia Chilensis plant native to South America. Used medicinally for thousands of years, Maqui Berry, also known as Chilean Wineberry, is revered by the Mapuche Indians in Chile, who used to treat everything from skin conditions to fatigue. Maqui berry is a superfruit recognised worldwide for its health-boosting benefits. It is nutrition-dense with vitamins A and C, minerals calcium, iron, potassium, and magnesium, and it contains a good source of plant-based protein and dietary fibre. In many parts of South America, it is considered a ‘slimming fruit’ due to its low fat and calorie content, and as it balances blood sugar levels, it can help suppress the appetite while boosting the metabolism to supercharge fat burning. Highly concentrated, our organic maqui berry powder is packed with antioxidants, and it has a higher ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) rating that many superfruits and super-greens such as cranberries, acai berries, and kale. Antioxidants play a vital role in protecting the body against everyday pollutants, UV rays, and free-radical damage, and so they are essential to good health. Freeze-dried maqui berry powder is not only nutritious, but it is also delicious! It has a lovely berry flavour that works well in all recipes. You can use it in baking to improve the nutritional content of cakes and brownies, blend into fruit juices, or add to any smoothie.
