CassiPure® Anthocyanin rich blackcurrant extract
CassiPure is a concentrated nutritional extract from one of the worlds true super-fruits, the blackcurrant, or cassis berry (ribes nigrum).
The blackcurrant is a small, dark purple, berry that is packed full of bioactive plant (phyto) nutrients, including high levels of anthocyanins. Anthocyanins are a group of well researched antioxidant polyphenols with many potential health benefits.
It is the anthocyanins in blackcurrants which give the berry its characteristic dark purple colour.
Product Features
Concentrated Source of Anthocyanin Polyphenols
CassiPure is a concentrated source of anthocyanin polyphenols which are known to have powerful antioxidant as well as anti-inflammatory activity
Anthocyanins, through their effects on oxidative damage and chronic inflammation have been shown to have potentially beneficial effects on eye health, heart health, cognitive function, and immunity.
CassiPure is standardised to 25% and 35% anthocyanin content.
Antioxidant activity of anthocyanins reduces oxidative stress
The study of potent antioxidants, such as the anthocyanins found in CassiPure, and their ability to mitigate the damaging effects of oxidative stress and inflammation in chronic disease is an area of increasing scientific focus.
+ Expand
Anthocyanin concentrates from blackcurrants have demonstrated neuroprotective effects in models of Alzheimers disease and Parkinsons disease, have shown positive effects on endothelial dysfunction (an early indicator of the development of atherosclerosis) in adult subjects with hyperlipidaeimia, and have demonstrated cholesterol and blood sugar lowering effects in animal models.
Other research has focussed on potential improvements in patients with the eye disease Glaucoma following supplementation with anthocyanin concentrate from blackcurrant .
