Maqui Berries, Natures Warrior Against Aging and Disease

Updated: Jul 11

From the farthest tip of South America in the land of Patagonia comes the exotic, dark-purple superfruit that is loaded with antioxidant power. They call the berries Maqui. This berry is nature’s warrior against heart disease, inflammation and much more. The nutrition we receive has a lot to do with dictating the quality of our health and good nutrition is the first step in winning the longevity battle. Happy and healthy is the Maqui goal for you. These berries from Patagonia bring quality of life that enables you to live! The major antioxidant of Maqui is the active ingredient of anthocyanidin known as C3G (cyanidin-3glucoside). You talk about hitting a home run against insulin resistance -- C3G is the hero of Maqui. Could anthocyanidin with C3G be the most potent antioxidant known to science? Very likely! And believe me, over the course of a lifetime, your body is drastically exposed to environmental toxins that cause a lot of “rust” to accumulate on your cells. In medical science we call these free radical oxygen molecules “rust”. That free radical oxygen exposure triggers chronic inflammation, opening the door to cell aging and genetic deterioration, paving the way for diseases of aging, including heart disease, diabetes and more. Over 90% of our modern-day diseases are caused by oxidative stress and inflammation. Your body will relish the input of C3G-rich maqui berries. The ORAC value of maqui is in the thousands, not the usual antioxidant score in the hundreds.


Maqui Berries

Yes, this dark-purple berry is rich in resveratrol and oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs). These unique substances pack a powerhouse of health benefits in healing and protection. Super-duper nutrition is a good way to put it. The power of the polyphenols found in Maqui Berries are known for their distinctive anti-aging, anti-inflammatory and disease-fighting properties. The longevity effects of Maqui are a perfect match for the longevity power of Lonicera and the master molecule of the human body, glutathione. The combination of ProImmune Mix (Glutathione enhancer) + Lonicera Berry Powder + Maqui Berry Powder complement each other synergistically, enhancing their total power. As a pharmacologist, I can think of no other product so perfect for helping the immune system to be its best.


Obesity develops when energy intake exceeds energy expenditure. C3G promotes brown adipose tissue (good fat) that increases the energy expenditure necessary to metabolize the white adipose tissue (badfluffy fat). C3G limits weight gain, improves insulin sensitivity, burns more fat (especially visceral belly fat) and helps preserve and build muscle (prevents sarcopenia). C3G helps divert nutrients consumed away from fat cells and into muscle cells where real energy can be produced as real fat breakdown (lipolysis) occurs. That’s a very good thing because your calories aren’t going to the fat cells, but to the muscle cells where you become stronger and more energetic. Maqui supports lean muscle mass. It’s God who made the anthocyanins rich in C3G and created the Maqui Berry.
