Pomegranate’s ruby red color is a result of its rich content of anthocyanins. It also contains ellagitannin compounds and is good source of dietary fiber, and several vitamins and minerals.

A potent source of polyphenols, green tea contains EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate) as well as chlorophyll, catechins, tannins and the flavonoids kaempferol, quercetin and myricetin. It is high in dietary fiber, amino acids, vitamins and minerals. Matcha green tea is specially made from tea plants that are shaded for three to four weeks before harvest, slowing down plant growth, resulting in increased chlorophyll, caffeine and amino acids, particularly L-theanine.

Cocoa powder contains flavonoids, including epicatechin, catechin and procyanidins and is a good source of minerals, amino acids and fatty acids like oleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid.

Mango fruit (Mangifera indica) are juicy, sweet tropical fruits native to South Asia. Mango trees can grow to 130 feet tall and they bear fruits that take 4-5 months from flowering to when they ripen. The fruit, varying in size, shape, color, texture and sweetness, are round, oval, or kidney-shaped, and can grow up to 10 inches long. Mangoes are packed with dietary fiber, including the soluble fiber, pectin. They are a very good source of vitamin C, a good source of vitamin B6, and provide over 20 other vitamins and minerals. Mango fruits are abundant in polyphenolic compounds such as mangiferin, catechins, quercetin, kaempferol, astragalin, rhamnetin, anthocyanins, gallic and ellagic acids, propyl and methyl gallate, benzoic acid, protocatechuic acid, and carotenoids like zeaxanthin, lutein, alpha-carotene and beta-carotene.

Ripe yellow bananas are a good source of potassium, manganese and phosphorus, and an excellent sou

Acai berries are a rich source of polyphenolic compounds, especially the flavonoids known as anthocyanins, which give the berry its characteristic deep purple color.

Lemon (Citrus limon), native to India and South Asia, is a small evergreen tree related to the orange, pomelo, tangerine and grapefruit. The ellipsoidal fruit has a green rind when unripe, which turns yellow when ripe, and the pulp is segmented and light yellow in color. Lemon juice is used in a wide variety of beverages and foods, and it can also be used as a preservative for a short period of time on foods that oxidize, because its high acid content slows down the oxidation effect of enzymes. Famous for their sour taste as a result of their high citric acid content, lemons are also an excellent source of naturally occurring vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, and contain the plant compound, citrus limonin. Like other citrus fruits, lemons contain a variety of phytochemicals like the flavonoid glycosides hesperetin, naringin, and naringenin, as well as containing smaller amounts of flavonoids like ß-carotenes, ß-cryptoxanthin, zeaxanthin, and lutein. They are a good source of dietary fiber and contain a number of vitamins and minerals, including B-vitamins (niacin, folate, thiamin, riboflavin, folate, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine) as well as zinc, magnesium, copper, iron, calcium and potassium.

Rich in antioxidants, apples contain quercetin, chlorogenic acid, procyanidin and catechin, and they are a good source of pectin, a soluble dietary fiber.

Coconuts are rich in healthy fatty acids (including medium-chain triglycerides) and phytosterols, and a good source of vitamins, minerals and amino acids.

Baobab Powder (organic) is a baobab tree (Adansonia digitata) which is a deciduous tree native to Africa and is typically found in dry, hot sub-Saharan Africa, Madagascar and Arabia, as well as in arid areas in Australia. Its name ‘baobab’ is derived from Arabic and means “father of many seeds”. It is also known as monkey bread tree, cream of tartar tree and upside down tree, due to it looking like an uprooted tree standing on its end. In Africa it’s known as the Tree of Life because all parts of the tree are used for food, drink and other necessary items. It’s thought the trees could live to be as old as 1,500 years. With its disproportionately thick trunk relative to its height and sparse branches, the tree produces heavy white flowers which are pollinated at night by fruit bats and become long green or brownish fruits that look like small gourds. The fruit has a hard shell, kidney-shaped seeds, and soft, creamy white pulp that is slightly powdery and gritty. Baobab fruit is tart and has a unique, pleasant fruity flavor. Baobab is low in fat, high in soluble and insoluble fiber, including pectin, and high in vitamin C. It is also a good source of potassium, iron, magnesium, calcium and also contains phytosterols, zinc, manganese, phosphorus and B vitamins.

Beet root is an excellent source of betalains, especially betacyanins, which are responsible for the color of red beets. They are also a rich source of dietary nitrates.
