ANTHOCRAN® Features and Benefits

ANTHOCRAN® is a highly standardized cranberry extract, reproducing the natural polyphenolic profile of the fruits. It is characterized by the highest PACs content (DMAC 27-33%) among available products on the market.

• It optimizes the per-serving amount (with only 120 mg) of cranberry extract needed to deliver 36 mg of PACs.
• ANTHOCRAN® is released with a non proprietary method, BL-DMAC, that accurately quantifies PACs in cranberry extracts.
• ANTHOCRAN® is supported by 3 human studies demonstrating effectiveness in supporting urinary tract health in young adults, elderly men suffering from moderate prostate diskomforts and healthy adolescents.
• ANTHOCRAN® is easy to formulate in a large variety of oral dosage forms thanks to favorable technological properties and is furthermore supported by an already developed “stand alone finished dosage formulation” with 12-months stability study.
