According to 18 th century Spanish documents, deep in the heart of South America grows
a dark purple berry that thrives in harsh conditions…

…it has been used by the only unconquered indigenous people in the Americas,
the Mapuche, for a variety of conditions such as sore throat, diarrhea, child birth, fevers,
and much more…

And according to these Spanish documents, several times each day the Mapuche
warriors drank a fermented beverage made from this indigenous berry called Chicha,
that they claim contributed to their extraordinary strength and stamina during battle.
And unlike the Inca and Aztec warriors who were decimated by wars and disease, the
Mapuche — who still exist today in Chile as the only unconquered indigenous people in
the Americas — and this mysterious dark berry may be a clue as to why.
Because it turns out that the little dark berry that powered the Mapuche in battle is the
highest known antioxidant ‘super fruit’ on the planet.

What is it?

It’s called the Maqui berry, and it contains some of the highest concentrations of
powerful anti-inflammatory substances, called polyphenols and anthocyanins, that have
wide-ranging impacts of the human body…

Benefits include:

– Superior antioxidant protection
– Natural COX-2 inhibitor (anti-inflammatory properties like those of aspirin, but without
the harsh side effects)
– Protects against cell oxidation and harmful free radicals
– Supports healthy inflammatory response

– Supports healthy immune response
– Promotes healthy aging
– Promotes healthy cholesterol
– Promotes eye health
– and much more

Here’s how it works…

Our bodies use antioxidants from the food we eat to bolster our immune systems and
keep us healthy and strong.

And of all the antioxidants, anthocyanins are the most powerful antioxidant compounds
with the strongest potential benefits towards total body health. They are what gives dark
berries like the Maqui berry their color and have been associated with a wide range of
positive health outcomes. The most important of all the anthocyanins is called
delphinidin, which is reported to exert superior antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects
in the human body, which makes up to approximately 80% of the anthocyanins in Maqui
berries. Delphinidin has been associated with a wide-range of health benefits such as
inhibiting blood glucose absorption, for example.

But it gets even better!

Not only are these anthocyanins powerful anti-inflammatory agents able to neutralize
enzymes that destroy connective tissues, but they also promote cardiovascular health
by preventing the oxidation of LDL cholesterol in the blood, which in turn protects blood
vessel walls from damage.

This may explain the strength and stamina attributed to the Mapuche warriors
described by the Spanish in their 18th century documents.

Today, research on the health benefits of the Maqui berry continues in universities
throughout Latin America where researchers are investigating its antioxidant, anti-
inflammatory, cholesterol, and healthy blood sugar support.
But you don’t have to be a Mapuche warrior, or even travel to South America, to feel the
effects of this incredible antioxidant powerhouse on your health.

In fact, now it’s easier than ever to make Maqui berry part of your daily routine…
