If you are not familiar with Puritan’s Pride they offer high quality vitamins and supplements at affordable prices. All their products are run through quality assurance tests for purity and full potency of the products you’re buying. They don’t take their ingredients from must any supplier. Nope, they have to meet Puritan’s Pride strict Quality Assurance standards. With that being said, I had the opportunity to try some of the Puritan’s Pride Superfruit products and I’d love to tell you about them.

I received 6 different berry products that offer heath boosting properties. Please note that any claims regarding health supplements have not been evaluated by the FDA. I gotta say that.

Everyone knows that berries a a healthy treat. Blueberries, blackberries, whatever you like. Nothing like biting into a fresh strawberry right? Many berries are full of antioxidants, vitamin C, and other benefits but why eat a whole pint of berries to get the benefits of the berries when you can take a small supplement pill that are packed with all those benefits? I don’t know about you but here in Pennsylvania I can’t go to my local produce section and pick up fresh acai berries or goji berries on the regular.

I received 2 packs of dried berries to snack on. Himalayan Harvest Organic Hunza White-Golden Mulberries and Himalayan Harvest Organic Hunza Goji Berries. I have never these dried. I’ve only had goji berries in chocolate but never by themselves.

I’ll admit these dried berries were something that needed to grow on me. Both of them had a pleasant, naturally sweet taste when I first started chomping on them but they both had an odd aftertaste I had to get used to. There are no preservatives, they’re grown naturally, naturally sweet, and sun dried. I kept going back to these over the course of about two weeks and the flavor started growing on me. In fact, I’m snacking on some now as I’m typing this up. The organic raw mulberries almost taste like honey in a way…that’s my opinion. The organic raw goji berries had a sweet taste I couldn’t quite put my finger on for a comparison. Unique to itself.

Then there were the 4 supplements I received: Acai 1000 mg, Cranberry fruit concentrate 4200 mg, Black Raspberry 300 mg, and Blueberry extract 60 mg.

Starting with the Cranberry fruit concentrate supplement, they were tiny red soft gel pills. Easy to swallow. In all honesty, when I put them in my mouth I could taste a little sweetness on my tongue. You are supposed to take 2 tabs 3x per day. Cranberries are high in vitamin C and A and the supplement also contains vitamin E.

Then there is the Freeze-Dried Black Raspberry supplement. You are to take one capsule 1-3 X per day. The capsule are a purple color and again easy to swallow. They contain ground plant parts in the capsule and freeze dried black raspberry.

The Blueberry leaf standardized Extract supplement is a very small rapid release softgel. You are supposed to take 1 soft gel 4X per day. Blueberries are packed with antioxidants including 16% chlorogenic acid from blueberry leaves. Since we usually don’t eat the blueberry leaves this is a great way to get those extra antioxidants.

Last but not least we have the Acai supplement. Acai berries have become popular and have become one of the most sought after berries. They are rich in flavonoid and antioxidants. It is recommended to take 2 softgels twice a day. These were the biggest of the supplements I received as far as pill size but still not huge. Easy to swallow.
