Cranberry – standardized Vaccinium macrocarpon extract (36 mg PAC)
Cranberries (Vaccinium macrocarpon) are native to North America and are now found almost worldwide. They are related to the lingonberries known here and are sometimes colloquially referred to as cultivated lingonberries.
Origin & Botany: Cranberry from North America
With a diameter of one to two centimetres, cranberries are larger than lingonberries. The raw material we use comes from the Vaccinium macrocarpon genus (heath family) and is related to the European blueberry.
Name & History
The name “cranberry” goes back to early settlers (“Pilgrim Fathers”), whose association of the blossom with the crane led to the name “crane berry”. Indigenous groups in North America used the fruits in many ways, including as food and as a source of dye.
In Europe, the red berries are valued for their content of secondary plant compounds, especially proanthocyanidins (PAC). Cranberries also contain organic acids and tannins.
Did you know…
… that cranberries are cultivated in basins with adjustable water levels? For harvesting, the fields are flooded; the ripe berries float to the surface and can then be collected.
What are proanthocyanidins?
Proanthocyanidins (PAC) belong to the secondary plant compounds. In cranberries, they occur for example as A-type and B-type compounds, which differ in their chemical structure. Vaccinium macrocarpon is characteristic for A-type PAC.
For quality information on cranberry products, a standardized PAC content is often declared (e.g. 36 mg PAC per capsule). Also make sure whether it is a cranberry extract with defined standardization or a cranberry powder without a PAC specification.

Plant oils compared: cold pressing vs. industrial oil productionWhether rapeseed oil, olive oil or argan oil – plant oils differ not only in taste, but also fundamentally in how they are produced. Anyone making a conscious choice when buying an oil often asks: What is the difference between cold-pressed and refined oils? And why does the production method play such a decisive role in quality, aroma and use? In this guide, we explain how industrial oil production and cold pressing work, how the two methods differ – and what this specifically means for well-known edible oils such as rapeseed oil, olive oil and argan oil.weiterlesen -
