Purple corn (Zea mays L., Poaceae) is a very unique Andean crop from the low valleys of the Andes Mountains of Peru. It is found in areas over ten thousand feet above sea level, where its origins predate Incan civilization. Many different varieties of purple corn exist, all of them originating from an ancestral line called "Kculli." The Kculli line is truly ancient; objects in the shape of these particular ears of corn have been found at archeological sites along the central coast dating back more than 2,500 years. Purple corn has been a staple of the Peruvian diet since antiquity, not only for its soft, refreshing flavor, but also for its unique nutritional content. Purple corn is a superb antioxidant containing substantial amounts of phenols and anthocyanins, among other phytochemicals. Anthocyanins are a type of complex, water-soluble flavonoid that displays antioxidant values higher than traditional antioxidant foods. Anthocyaninins are also responsible for the deep blue and purple color of FIaviCorn. With purple corn, the kernel pericarp (the outer layer of the kernel) has the highest concentration of anthocyanins. When the ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) was compared to that of blueberries, purple corn was found to be three times more powerful an antioxidant. This is an interesting fact, since blueberries have long been touted as one of the most powerful natural antioxidants. What makes FlaviCorn different from other purple corn products is that you get the true, uncooked purple corn extract. With most products a dry powder form capsule is all you get. FlaviCorn retains all the vital nutrients and living enzymes contained in purple corn in their natural, most valuable state. How to use FlaviCorn: Take 20 or more drops in juice or water once daily. |
