The Organicsio Advantage
Our Antidesma bunius crop is cultivated in heavy-metal monitored soil zones to prevent bio-accumulation common in wild-harvested variants. Organicsio employs precision spectrophotometry during harvest to ensure berries are picked at peak anthocyanin saturation (deep purple-black stage), guaranteeing a standardized polyphenolic index superior to generic market stock.

Phytochemical Profile
This profile is characterized by a high concentration of antioxidant flavonoids. Primary constituents include Cyanidin-3-Glucoside (C3G) and Procyanidin B1/B2. The leaves contain notable levels of amentoflavone and organic acids (citric, tartaric) which contribute to its traditional use in lipid metabolism management and anti-diabetic formulations.
