The research suggests that anthocyanins – a potent polyphenol group of compounds found in New Zealand blackcurrants – can help ward off developing type 2 diabetes as well as the associated health risks of pre-diabetes.
Mike Wakeman, clinical pharmacist, author, and ingredient formulating scientist added: “The data from this latest study looking at the CurraNZ extract in relation to type 2 diabetes and reducing the risk of developing the disease is great news.
“It adds to the weight of evidence that is really building now, on this specific New Zealand Blackcurrant extract.
“It appears that the magic in this unique extract – CurraNZ – is the working action of anthocyanins wrapped into the proprietary complex – Enzans.
