Maqui Berry Powder - 100% pure & natural

Maqui berry is one of natures medical miracles. For centuries it has been a key part of the dietary, medicinal and ceremonial culture of Patagonias Mapuche Indians (Chile). They are on to a good thing. This miracle berry is packed with essential vitamins, dietary fibre, protein, carbohydrate, antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds. Maqui, or Aristotelia chilensis, is a tree that grows wild in Patagonia. Its purple berry is revered by the local Mapuche Indians, who use it as both foodstuff and medicine. They regard it as sacred due to its power in both roles.

Maqui is harvested sustainably by the Mapuche. They beat the flexible tree branches to recover the fruit, then place fallen leaf and twig matter on the ground below to create fertiliser. The Mapuche pick Green Originss Maqui this way. Our supplier runs a social investment programme which provides education to the Mapuche and helps preserve the medicinal expertise of this native people. Our supplier is also organically certified. No herbicides or pesticides are used in the care and cultivation of our Maqui, which grows in a remote area far from industrial and urban sources of pollution. Green Origins Maqui berry is naturally pure.

Maqui fully deserves the label superfood. It is a potent source of protein, vitamins, minerals and fibre. It has one of the highest antioxidant values of any fruit as measured by ORAC and also the broadest range of antioxidant protection as measured by Total ORAC. It has a huge concentration of anthocyanins (particularly delphinidin) and polyphenols. Science is increasingly discovering that compounds within Maqui have significant anti-inflammatory qualities, too.

As transporting fresh berries across the globe is both impractical and environmentally disastrous, Green Originss brings you the next best thing - Maqui berry in freeze-dried, powder form. Freeze-drying involves rapidly freezing berry pulp then warming it to vaporise the frozen water content. A high percentage of the original nutritional elements remains, in portable, convenient and environmentally responsible form.
