Did you know that this small black-violet berry contains almost the entire periodic table of elements*? Aronia is a natural source of vitamins and micronutrients that the body needs — it contains nearly everything required for a strong immune system.
And we don’t know this just from hearsay — we’ve experienced it ourselves: aronia is a true superfood. It helps us stay healthy through the damp and cold Latvian winter.
What each berry contains:
- Vitamins B1, B2, B6 — support the nervous system, metabolism, and blood formation
- Vitamin C — protects against infections, important for the heart and skin
- Vitamins A, E, K, P — healthy blood vessels, good vision, and strong bones
- Iodine, iron, magnesium, boron, copper, manganese — for hormonal balance, maintaining normal blood composition, and supporting protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism
- Fluorine — involved in the formation of bones and tooth enamel
- Iron — an essential component of hemoglobin
- Pectins and anthocyanins — natural antioxidants that help eliminate toxins and have anti-inflammatory properties

*The periodic table of chemical elements (known as Mendeleev’s table). It was independently and almost simultaneously introduced in 1869 by two chemists: first by the Russian Dmitri Mendeleev and a few months later by the German Lothar Meyer. In its traditional graphical form, it appeared in 1871.
