Health Benefits with the Acai Berry and Blueberries in Xocai Organic Dark Chocol ate USDA Study

Determined that Commercial Canning Does Not Diminish the Healthy Leve l of Flavonoid Activity in Blueberries- Xocai Chocolates also Maintains the Extr eme Health Benefits with the Acai Berry and Blueberries in their Organic Dark Ch ocolate

Blueberries owe their nutritional benefits to the high levels of naturally occurr ing antioxidant phytonutrients, particularly, flavonoids. Blueberries' helpful nu trients offer protection from oxidative damage; which is the key association to ma ny age-related diseases such as cancer, diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis, among o thers. In a study conducted by the Canned Food Alliance with the Oregon Health Sciences University and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) -- to determine the af fect of commercial canning on the flavonoid content of blueberries compared with fresh blueberries -- found that the antioxidant level and flavonoid activity in ca nned blueberries actually is elevated than that of fresh and frozen blueberries. "Not only did this study prove that commercial canning does not diminish the lev els of any flavonoid measured, it actually increases the abundance of some antio xidants," said Dr. Daniel Hatton, associate professor at OHSU. "Since canned fru it is processed immediately after harvest, canned blueberries offer a year-round source of antioxidants with higher levels than fresh or frozen blueberries." As with both consumers and the media fascination in the health benefits of phytonu trients, ther has been little information available about the result of food pro cessing (canning) on flavonoid values. With the USDA, the Oregon Health Sciences University compared flavonoids in fresh, frozen, canned, heated and refrigerate d blueberries -- from the same harvested sample to determine the effects of comm ercial canning on the flavonoid (with antioxidant functions) content of blueberr ies as compared to fresh blueberries. "Consumers today are more interested in positive nutrition -- adding, not avoidi ng, foods that may enhance fitness, boost immunity, slow aging and prevent or sl ow the chance for chronic disease," said Roberta Duyff, MS, RD, and author of th e American Dietetic Association Complete Food and Nutrition Guide. "Research on phytonutrients is the new frontier in nutrition, and is as exciting today as vit amin discoveries were a hundred years ago." Beginning in 1995, the Canned Food Alliance has conducted research studies to eva luate the nutritional values of canned foods. The University of Illinois conducte d a study in 1997 that found, that canned fruits and vegetables provide as much d ietary fiber as their cooked fresh and frozen counterparts, and are a suitable wea pon in helping to combat the risk of heart disease and some types of cancer.
