EXOCYAN® CRAN is a range of Cranberry extract (Vaccinium Macrocarpon), a small acid berry grown exclusively in USA and Canada.
This berry is naturally packed with polyphenols (very strong antioxidants) and especially ProAnthoCyanidins (PACs). Unlike most other plants and berries rich in polyphenols that contain type B PACs, like grapes and green tea, cranberry only contains type A PACs.
This specific feature is the source of the extraordinary power of Cranberry, as PACs A are the only ones that have an anti bacterial activity. This activity is obtained through a unique anti adhesion property: bacteria cannot hook and are naturally “flushed away” from the body.
AFSSA (French FDA) recognised in 2004 that a daily intake of 36 mg of Cranberry PACs A per day helped to limit the adhesion of some bacteria (E.Coli) on urinary tract, thus limiting the risk of UTI.
More recent studies evidence the role of PACs A on peptic ulcer prevention and other bacteria related infections.
