Tips
IMMUNIA is an easy solution for getting polyphenols at any time of the year in order to optimize your natural antioxidant intake. Antioxidants are available in our food.
We all know that we need to eat 7 to 10 portions of fruits and vegetables every day for adequate vitamin, mineral, fibre and polyphenol (antioxidants) intake.
However, in real life, many of us do not eat the required 7 to 10 portions or are unable to choose the most nutritious fruits in order to benefit from a sufficient intake and a good diversity of antioxidants.
According to an American study, daily intake of 10 portions of fruits and vegetables would allow for an (average) intake of 12.43 mg of anthocyanins.
Although eating whole fruits and vegetables is preferable for their fibre content, IMMUNIA allows people whose diet is deficient to consume 14.5 mg of anthocyanins in a single teaspoon (5 ml).
