Navitas Naturals Organic Maqui Powder, 3oz. Pouch

Description

Navitas naturals maqui powder is made from organic maqui berries that grow in the pristine southern Patagonian region of the Chilean Andes. Shrubby bushes laden with dark purple berries are hand harvested by family farmers and then freeze-dried and milled into an easy-to-use powder. Maqui berries are among the most antioxidant-rich foods on earth and they contain potent flavonoid compounds called anthocyanin s and polyphenols. The berries also contain an abundance of vitamin c, calcium, iron and potassium. In Patagonia, maqui berries have been a staple food and part of rituals and ceremonies for the mapuche Indians-one of the longest-living cultures in the world. Navitas naturals maqui powder has a slightly tart flavor that s described as having hints of blackberry, blueberry, watermelon and acai. It is a delicious addition to juices, smoothies, yogurt and desserts.
