Cranberry Ingredient Manufacturer Supplier

cranberry

Cranberries are small bright-red berries packed with antioxidants that provide many health benefits. Their powdered form is used as an ingredient in supplement manufacturing.

Cranberry supplements are typically in pill form. Many manufacturers mix them with other ingredients such as vitamin C and probiotics to enhance their effects.

Benefits

1. Reduce Risk of Urinary Tract Infections

Cranberries contain compounds called proanthocyanidins which prevent E. coli bacteria from sticking to your bladder and urethra. (1)

Since proanthocyanidins prevent bacteria from sticking to tissue, it cannot multiply and cause an infection. As a result, cranberry helps prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs).

Multiple studies have concluded the same results: taking cranberry pills daily for two months significantly reduces frequency of UTIs, especially in women. (2, 3, 4)

However, multiple studies suggest that cranberry supplements are not for everyone, as they have no significant benefits for elderly people.

2. Packed With Powerful Antioxidants

In case you didn’t already know, free radicals harm your body. They are directly linked to chronic illnesses, such as diabetes and heart disease. (5, 6)

Cranberries are filled with powerful antioxidants that protect your body against free radicals. In fact, cranberries are one the most antioxidant-rich fruits. (7)

Furthermore, some compounds in cranberry are even more effective at fighting free radicals than vitamin E — one of the most powerful antioxidants in our body. (8)

What’s even more great is that cranberry supplements can pack higher concentration of antioxidants than prepared products such as cranberry jelly or cranberry sauce. (9)

3. Improve Heart Health

Ingesting cranberry daily is directly linked to lower heart disease risk.

This reduction occurs because cranberry increases HDL cholesterol (good type of cholesterol) — which results in reduced inflammation and prevention of cholesterol oxidation. (10)

4. Reduce Risk of Stomach Ulcers

Certain compounds in cranberry remove H. pylori bacterial infections in the stomach — which as a result can reduce risk of stomach ulcers. (11)

5. Improve Teeth and Gum

As we mentioned earlier, proanthocyanidins in cranberry prevent bacteria from sticking to your body tissues. What we didn’t mention was that they also stop bacteria from overgrowing inside your mouth — which helps keep your gum and teeth healthy. (11)

Health Issues Associated With Cranberry Deficiency

Since cranberry is filled with powerful antioxidants, it helps reduce oxidative stress. (12)

Oxidative stress is directly linked to chronic and acute illnesses, including:

  • Fatal heart diseases
  • Parkinson’s disease
  • Emphysema
  • Arthritis
  • Cancer
  • Stroke

Antioxidants are crucial for your body to function properly. So, a good way to increase antioxidants is by adding cranberry supplements to your diet.

Daily Recommended Intake

Since different brands contain different amounts, there is no standard intake for cranberry.

However, some studies suggest that 500-1,500 milligram of cranberry powder per day helps prevent urinary tract infections and reduces oxidative stress. (13, 14)

Furthermore, a recent study concludes that taking cranberry containing 36 milligrams of proanthocyanidins is ideal for preventing UTIs. (15)

We just completed a very large Homeopathic tablet order that required involvement from 4 different facilities. There was nobody else in the country that was willing to help us that we called until we found superior. First shipment came last week and we couldn’t be happier or more impressed with the team. Thank you Justine, Phil, Stephenie you are the best!

★★★★★
I was choosing between two companies to create a formulation, and it came down to their level of service, expertise and confidence in their ability to execute. After speaking to Phil, their lead guy who knows all things supplements and is very easy to communicate with, was enthusiastic and helped to create a strategy to see my vision through. The last thing you want is a transactional relationship in this industry, so whether you’re a first timer or a veteran, these guys know how to add value no matter what level you’re at. Highly recommend Superior and their team to get the job done.
★★★★★
When they say “Superior” they aren’t kidding. Of over 100 companies on our NSF list that we called, and over 20 that we talked to, Superior was the ONLY one that consistently answered their phones, worked incredibly diligently to problem solve and R&D an incredibly complex patented proprietary product, and consistently was two or three steps ahead of us, the landscape and their competitors. Looking forward to a long relationship Superior!
★★★★★
We’ve been using Superior for over 5 years. We came to them because our last manufacturer stopped making the capsule size I needed. I looked everywhere for a replacement. Luckily, I found Superior. They quoted me a fair price and sourced a hard to find ingredient quickly. In the 5 years we’ve had them make our product, which is a custom formulation, they have never delivered late once. Quality control is very high and I get constant updates from Phil our point person while it is being manufactured. I cannot recommend them enough.
★★★★★
Our previous manufacturer was 3 months late on a production and barely spoke with us. We have run many runs with Superior and as with all manufacturing, there was an order that was a little late because of poor crop growth. Not only did they warn us ahead of time they showed us the list of suppliers they were calling day and night to try to find replacement material. Best company ever!
★★★★★
Jake, Justine and Phil are just a few of the team members we have had the pleasure of working with at Superior. As a marketing agency working in the supplement industry, we work with many suppliers on behalf of our clients. I especially appreciate Superior Supplements Manufacturing because of their dedication to customer relationships. They go to extreme measures to ensure quality ingredients, fair pricing and great turn around times. The staff is also extremely knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this team.
