Tackling Cancer: The Top Aronia Berry Property
came to know this Idoori through takashimaya posting (Korean Fair). I then, went to search online and wanted to find out more about it. I read numbers of good reviews on this product. I decided to drop by taka, and got myself a bundle set of 2 blackraspberry vinegars as well as 30 pouches of blackraspberry extract. & I must say, this health product really helps me in my body. The 2 bottles of vinegars I gave it to my parents. They love the taste too! & I made my 2nd purchase online just ytd, and i have received today! Very efficient!

Last week, we discussed specific chemicals in the Korean black raspberry, which possesses anti-cancer properties. More specifically, the Korean black raspberry is packed with antioxidants[1]. The aronia berry (also known as the chokeberry), on the other hand, has more than that – This berry contains antioxidant, anti-cancer, and anti-platelet properties[2].
Aronia Berries are also very similar to the Black Raspberries as they are also rich in anthocyanins[3]. The antioxidant ability of anthocyanins has been proven to reduce the risk of some diseases[4]. For example, the aronia berry has proven to be the best in reducing colon cancer cell growth[5]. This is closely linked to its anti-cancer properties as well! The anthocyanins in aronia berries tend to cause cancer cells to die by triggering their death, also known as cell apoptosis[6]. Also, multiple studies have shown that aronia berries protect our bodies from colon and gastrointestinal cancer[3].
In terms of anti-platelet activity, the aronia berry has shown promise in reducing the risk of breast cancer[7]. Basically, the platelets in patients with breast cancer are abnormal, causing the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). ROS are responsible for causing damage to RNA, DNA, and proteins, which may eventually lead to certain forms of cancer[8]. By lowering platelet activity in the carcinogenic region, this may reduce both oxidative stress and subsequent DNA damage that is key for cancer cell development[8].
All in all, it is important to remember that we live in the 21st Century – Life expectancy is on the rise and as we age, the odds of developing mutated cells are increasing as well. To better protect ourselves from these malignant cells, we can eat specific food that contains anti-cancer properties (and this is where the berries come in)!
As mentioned before, the aronia berry has similar properties to the Korean black raspberry. However, the aronia berry (available at: https://www.idoori.com/category/aroniaberry) appears to target a few different types of cancer as it has a different chemical composition. So, including one or the other (or both types of berries) in your diet could be the step you need to take in reducing the chance of cancer cell development. While it is not foolproof, remember that even the slightest improvement in odds is worth it if the result is a cancer-free life. Both of these nutritious berries are available in the form of juice in our store (on sale today)!

My mum had been drinking aronia berry and black raspberry juice for almost a year and I must say its really help! She was diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer and its aid during her chemo treatment. She is less prone to the side effect and falling sick. Her tumor has reduced and right now she's still continuing her daily dose to fight radical and maintaining her health condition.
