Superberry trends come and go. We’ve had the age of the acai and the goji, now there’s another berry squeezing into the wellness stage — the aronia berry.
These tiny superfruits are being touted as nature’s next big antioxidant powerhouse.
“Aronias contain three times as many disease-fighting antioxidants as blueberries. Raspberries and goji berries can’t compete when it comes to the aronia’s oxidative stress and cell damage,” according to a recent MSN report.
As we healthy fashion gals, know what you put into your body is way more important than what you wear or put on your face. If you feed your body the right nutrients, your skin will be radiant and glowing – plus you are less apt to have weight issues, which make summer’s more baring styles much more wearable.
The Superberries wellness line has tapped into these purple powerhouses with a line of aronia gummies, aroniaberry concentrate and frozen berries.
