Detox Your World Purple corn extract powder: raw, no agro-chems, vegan 100 g
Amongst all the various colours of corn in the world (white, yellow, red, purple, brown, green and blue), there is a purple corn that has been cultivated in South America for thousands of years. Generally grown in Peru, this purple corn is one of nature’s richest sources of at least six different anthocyanin antioxidants - even more than blueberries. This purple corn has been extensively used as a staple food and a natural colouring dye. Recently, anthocyanins have been studied and reported to have antimutagenic, antimicrobial and anticarcinogenic properties.
There are very few purple plants to be found in nature, and thus if you are to eat a true rainbow diet, this purple corn extract is a helpful and tasty addition.
This product is created by juicing the purple corn then slowly, at low temperatures, evaporating off the liquid in the juice until this pure powder remains.
The powder tastes like the essence of corn (a faint sweetness with a subtle hint of American whiskey with no alcohol). Purple corn extract is a wonderful addition to smoothies, cacao/chocolate parties, cacao/chocolate drinks, alchemical raw-food recipes, and dressings.
Makes for great face paint! Kids love it! Simply use a little water on your hand, dip into the purple corn extract, and paint your skin! Washes off with water.
Once open, please refrigerate. One level tablespoon (approximately 2 grams) per day per person is a good dose of purple corn extract. A little goes a long way with this rare product.
