Aronia berries or Chokeberries belong to the Rose family Rosaceae. They grow in North America and are now naturalised in Eastern Europe. The berries are somewhat tart, but have high levels of anthocyanins making them a very beneficial addition to the diet to help lower both the risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease while reducing cognitive decline.

Flaxseeds are known to improve digestive health and relieve constipation. Their fibre also helps with balancing blood sugar and removing LDL cholesterol which also improves cardiovascular health. An added heart benefit is their high levels of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids and to complete the picture

With flaxseeds it is always best to freshly grind the amount you need to use as once ground they begin to oxidise and will go rancid within a few weeks, losing all the nutritional benefits. Grind them to get the full benefits of the fibre and omega-3. Keep the the whole seeds fresh by storing them in an air-tight container in the fridge or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
