08 May 2017 --- Anthocyanins may benefit cognitive health, according to studies conducted by Evonik and Professor Dag Aarsland, a specialist in dementia and dementia research at King’s College in London. Anthocyanins are naturally occurring antioxidants predominantly found in blue, purple, red or bluish-black fruits and vegetables. Evonik produces a proprietary anthocyanin-rich extract from wild Scandinavian bilberries and blackcurrants from New Zealand. The extract, marketed as an ingredient for functional foods under the name Healthberry, is also used in MEDOX, a highly successful nutritional supplement available in Norway.
