brightlotusmoonThe Top Ten ORAC Berries:
1. Acai: 102,700
2. Sea Buckthorn: 70,000
3. Goji (Wolfberry): 30,300
4. Black Chokeberry: 16,000
5. Black Raspberry: 16,000
6. Muscadine Grape: 15,000
7. Elderberry: 12,000
8. Cranberry: 9,500
9. Wild Blueberry: 9,300
10. Blackberry: 5,300
It is important to mention that the Sea Buckthorn and Goji berries also have phenolics and carotenoids giving them an extra bit of health benefit. Of course just their ORAC score is impressive, but who would arguer with a little bit of a bonus.
