What Is Berry Radical? Today's fast-food society and nutrient deficient soils makes it difficult, if not impossible, to obtain the quality and concentrations of daily nutrients necessary to positively impact our health. Berry Radical is a revolutionary certified organic, superfood designed to assist the body in attaining vibrant health, wellbeing and longevity. The ingredients in Berry Radical have been proven to assist the body in neutralising free radical damage. What Are Free Radicals And Why Do We Need Antioxidants? Oxidation occurs when free radicals (highly reactive, high-energy particles) ricochet wildly throughout the body and damage cells. Free radicals can be produced within the body by natural biological processes or introduced from outside via tobacco smoke, toxins, pollutants and sub-optimal eating habits. Free radicals are believed to accelerate the progression of cancer, cardiovascular disease, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue, and age-related diseases. Antioxidants found in fruits and vegetables help to neutralise free radicals in our bodies. What Are ORAC Units And How Many Do We Need? ORAC, short for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity, is a standardised measurement of the total antioxidant power of a substance. Antioxidant power is the ability to neutralize oxygen free radicals. The more free radicals a substance can absorb, the higher it's ORAC score. Nutritionists recommend that we consume around 5000 ORAC units per day to significantly impact antioxidant activity in the body and reduce free radical damage. One serving (half a cup) of fruits or vegetables provides approximately 500 ORAC units. If you're not eating at least 10 servings of fruits and vegetables a day, you're not getting the recommended amount of ORAC units to mop-up the damage caused by free radicals in your body every day. One serving of Berry Radical contains over 7000 ORAC units. One 150g box contains 217,000 ORAC units. To get the equivalent amount of ORAC units in one jar of Berry Radical from other foods, you'd have to buy: Foods Supplements 5 kilos of blueberries 24 bottles of Noni juice 8 kilos of raspberries 10 bottles of Goji juice 10 kilos of strawberries 7 bottles of Mangosteen juice Caffeine Content - A cup of tea contains an average of 40mg of caffeine, compared to 85mg as found in a cup of freshly brewed coffee. A serving of Berry Radical contains 0.4mg of caffeine.
