Phyto Power: All It Takes is a Handful of Berries
What gives Phyto Power its strength and health building effect?
Several species of Alaskan berries and Dandelion gathered in remote, wild areas of Alaska.
A recent 2021 research by Lembo & Frye shows that wild berries from Alaska are effective in actually making people feel better.
Using the One Health principle for their research, Lembo and Frye compared wild Alaskan berries to berries from the rest of United States (as they call it, Lower-48 states).
The results showed a dramatic positive effects on health and well-being, people from Alaska had higher rates of feeling better - body and mind- than the rest of the US (lower-48 states and the control group in this research).
Marshall's (2020) comprehensive report shows that the less traditional foods Alaskans eat, the more diseases and chronic conditions are experienced. Getting back to eating berries and traditional whole foods are essential for good health.
And that is a good advice for all of us.
The Photo Power has Four species of blueberries from the wilds of Alaska! It has a 'handful' of blueberries. We suggest 2 capsules a day.
