British Blackcurrant Foundation
British blackcurrants are renowned and bred for their deep purple colour, which indicates a high level of anthocyanins (disease fighting antioxidants) that guard against ageing, joint inflammation, eyestrain, kidney stones, cardiovascular disease, cancer and urinary tract infections. Blackcurrants are also deliciously tasty and easy to incorporate into even the most hectic of schedules! Whether sprinkled in your porridge, baked into a pie or simply sipped as a juice.
