FAQs
Q. Can I mix BERRYSPLASH LIQUID with juices or other health shakes?
A. Yes, this is a great way to boost the nutritional value of these drinks.
Q. What are Antioxidants?
A. First we need to understand what free radicals are and what they do to the body. Free radicals are bad for our health in many ways. A good illustrative example of the harmful effects of oxidation is rusting. When metal rusts it becomes weak and flaky, it starts to degenerate or decay until it no longer performs its functions well. Eventually the metal "fatigues" and "fails". THIS EXACT SAME PROCESS HAPPENS IN OUR BODY! Just like in rusting, the cells, organs, and other parts of our body can be made weak by oxidation. This can lead to diseases like cancer, heart disease, cataracts and macular degeneration, osteoarthritis, senile dementia and other neurological diseases, and even skin aging and wrinkling! Antioxidants work to reduce the energy of the DAMAGING free radical, to stop it from forming, or to interrupt an oxidizing reaction, thus minimizing the free radical's damaging effects on good tissue in our body helping tit to stay younger longer.
Q. BerrySplash Liquid states it has a high ORAC value. What is ORAC Value?
A. ORAC stands for “Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity”. Testing for ORAC value provides us with a method of measuring the overall antioxidant power of foods and supplements. Simply put, the higher the ORAC value the more antioxidant power the food contains. Scientists have learned that phytochemicals, including antioxidants, increase our resistance to disease and boost immunity, hence the recommendation of 5-9 servings of antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables each day. ORAC Value is expressed in unit numbers.
Q. What is a good ORAC value?
A. According to Dr. Guohua Cao, a physician and chemist who helped develop the ORAC test, “based on the evidence so far, some experts suggest that daily intake be increased to approximately 5,000 ORAC units to have a significant impact on plasma and tissue antioxidant capacity. Generally the minimum recommended "5-a-day" vegetables and fruits program is considered to be supplying about 1750 ORAC units daily”. One serving of Brazilian BerrySplash Liquid has an incredibly high rating of 3800 ORAC units, equivalent to 76% of your daily antioxidant needs.
Q. Since BerrySplash Liquid is concentrated, how many servings of fruits does a serving of BerrySplash Liquid provide?
A. It provides the nutrient equivalent of 3 servings of fruits. Since your goal is to eat 5-10 servings of fruits and vegetables per day, you are 60% to your minimum goal consumption with just one serving of BERRYSPLASH. And there’s more good news as there are 11 different sources of nutrient-dense fruits from around the world in BERRYSPLASH, so you are getting a variety of unique health benefits from each fruit that you would not receive with your typical North American choices of fruit.
