Description

We believe the combination of tradition and science is a match made in heaven. 

These are the principal fundamentals we use when searching far and wide for the highly nourishing traditional foods used for thousands of years to create and provide customers with a product that allows for optimal versatility and limitless applications.  

 

We proudly introduce our delicious, versatile, and easy-to-use functional food powder: Naveen Organic Blueberry Juice Powder.

While all fruits are well known for their bright, vibrant colors and highly nourishing polyphenolic content, these powerful blue nuggets of deliciousness, also known as brain berries, are considered one of the world’s most nutritious and well-studied common fruits.

Blueberries: Nature’s Brain Food Tonic

Also known as brain berries, blueberries have an impressive body of preliminary and human studies showing the broad spectrum of nourishing benefits on the brain and nervous system. It seems that one of blueberries’ primary mechanisms of action is their direct effect on improving vascular and cerebral blood flow. In simple terms, cerebral blood flow is a measure of the blood delivery rate in the arteries to a capillary bed in the brain tissue. While researchers found that up to six cups of blueberries daily improved memory in just 12 weeks, this was determined to be an unrealistic dose for most people to stay consistent with. Therefore, it was then determined that just one cup a day of blueberries for older adults showed some improvement in long-term memory.

A study in neural regeneration research conducted on young and old participants showed that consuming blueberries daily increased blood flow to key brain areas and improvements in memory and attention. 

A survey of the antioxidant capacity and phenolic composition of blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries concluded that blueberries have exceptionally high levels of anthocyanidins and proanthocyanins. 

Another study examining blueberry supplementation’s acute impact on children’s cognitive function showed the following. The blueberry group showed significant improvement over the placebo group in memory in as little as 90 minutes. It was also revealed that the higher dose produced consistently better results. Therefore, this study demonstrated blueberry’s fast-acting nature on brain tissue and its ability to improve brain performance.

Finally, a noteworthy preliminary study discussing the effects of feeding mice a combination of omega-three fatty acids, blueberries, and phosphatidyl serine showed that the group fed this mixture showed fewer amyloid plaques and an increased amount of acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that begins impulse transmission between neurons. A deficiency of acetylcholine is linked to the development of Alzheimer’s disease. 

 

Blueberry Juice Powder: Balanced and Concentrated

Juice powders are one of many versions of what is known as extract powders. The umbrella term “extract powder” describes various highly concentrated versions of foods and herbs in either powder or liquid form. 

These different versions on the market create unique variables for how these highly concentrated foods are potentially used for their nourishing qualities. Some of these variables are defined in concentration levels.

Full spectrum extracts concentrate a food or herb as a whole (1:1, 4:1, 10:1, 25:1, and 100:1), so you are getting all constituents found in that food in a highly concentrated, well-balanced manner. 

A juice powder comes closest to a full-spectrum concentration. Although the fiber has been removed in a juice powder (which may take away some nourishing properties), all other nutrients and compounds are perfectly balanced and more concentrated. Yes, there are indeed products on the market that concentrate and isolate specific constituents; they are known as standardized extracts. These products are quite effective at supporting specifically targeted mechanisms of action. Still, they are not a genuine part of tonic herbalism because they don’t produce a well-balanced end product or effect.

Suggested Use: Mix one tablespoon with juice and yogurt, or add to your favorite smoothie or recipes.

Mixing suggestion: To increase flavor and nutritional profile, combine coconut oil and walnuts in a smoothie.
