Cranberries

My sole experience with cranberries for years was that sugary jello-like substance that appeared on my family’s Thanksgiving dinner table every November. In fact, I think I was around nine before I figured out that the canned stuff came from a berry!

I’m not sure how much health that form of cranberry brought me, but eaten in its whole form or consumed as a juice, it bestows many life-giving benefits.

Nutrients in cranberries

• Vitamin C
• Manganese
• Vitamin K
• Fiber

Although the cranberry does not have a large amount of any one macronutrients, the phytonutrients that give it a hefty antioxidant and anti-bacterial/viral value provide many health benefits.

Health benefits of cranberries

Recent research has shown that consuming cranberries can help prevent and treat a variety of conditions.

• They reduce the risk of urinary tract infections, or UTI, because of its antibacterial properties.
• They prevent bladder infections, because it contains a kind of tannin that keeps bacteria from sticking to the bladder walls.
• They prevent E. Coli from having deleterious effects on the body by altering its shape and activity.
• They may combat herpes.
• They promote the growth of friendly bacteria in the gut, while killing of pathogens.
• Cranberries can prevent kidney stone formation.
• They promote healthy cholesterol levels.
• They can prevent cancer, having five times the antioxidant level of broccoli.

Knowing all this, do you think the cranberry would be a worthy supplement to your diet? Definitely yes, especially if it is used in conjunction with other superfoods that provide a variety of nutrients and health benefits.
