Known for its bold, tart taste, the cranberry is a nutrient-dense fruit that may deliver health benefits and contains several unique compounds, such as Type-A proanthocyanidins (PACs) that help cleanse and purify your body. The power of the cranberry centers on its well-documented urinary tract health benefits and emerging heart health properties. Certain cranberry products can also play an important role in helping consumers meet their daily fruit intake as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.
Reflecting on the official launch of Ocean Spray in South Africa on 10 November at the Protea Hotel Fire & Ice! Melrose Arch, Tara Levine, MD: Europe, Middle East & Africa, comments: "We are very excited to bring Ocean Spray brand products to South Africa where we believe people will be very receptive to the brand. This rainbow nation is becoming more and more health conscious. The great thing about our products, is that they offer a uniquely rich taste that is refreshing, satisfying and revitalising."
