Aronia (Chokeberry) is a compact shrub, reaching a height of 2.5 - 3 meters, with shiny, not jagged leaves. Its fruits are small blue-black grains, which are in the form of miniature apples.

For healing purposes and the needs of the food industry, the fruits of the Aronia are collected. They contain many vitamins - P, C, E, K, PP, carotene, B group vitamins, organic acids, and sugar. By the content of organic acids, the fruit of the Aronia significantly outweighs strawberries, raspberries, red currants, and mandarins. They also contain potassium, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, pectin, tanning substances, and much more.

Useful properties:

Weight Loss
Right off the bat, chokeberries are low in calories and fat, yet contain dietary fiber and a wealth of nutrients. If you’re trying to feel full and stay healthy, without packing on any extra pounds, chokeberries can be an excellent dietary aid.

Aid in Digestion
As mentioned above, chokeberries are high in dietary fiber, meaning that they facilitate smooth digestion by moving food through the gut efficiently. By bulking up the stool, fiber can help to eliminate constipation, diarrhea, cramping, bloating, and general stomach discomfort. The organic compounds in chokeberries also protect the gut from dangerous bacteria, due to their natural immune-boosting and antioxidant activity.

Antioxidant Capacity
This is certainly the most important aspect of chokeberries, given that there are dozens of different antioxidants crammed into this one type of fruit! From quercetin, epicatechin, caffeic acid, and malvidin to lutein, zeaxanthin, and carotene, chokeberries provide a huge amount of antioxidant protection that can increase your overall health by eliminating free radicals in your bloodstream, skin, eyes, organs, and tissues that may be trying to cause healthy cells to mutate. The powerful anthocyanin and flavonoid activity is one of the most impressive and unique capacities of this tart fruit.
