Saskatoon BerryPrairie Berries’ (booth 8539) Saskatoon Berry Powder packs a punch! Canada’s newest superfruit contains uniquely high antioxidative characteristics. The major anthocyanins in saskatoon berries are cyanidin 3-galactoside and 3-glucoside. Some literature indicates that cyanidin 3-glucoside has more bioactivity than other anthocyanins. In a research study conducted by POS Bio Sciences, saskatoon berry powder was compared to other common superfruit powders showing higher phenolics and anthocyanins.
