Lead scientist Rui Hai Liu, Ph.D. used the cellular antioxidant activity (CAA) assay--a new assay developed by the Cornell University Department of Food Science to determine antioxidant activity of antioxidants, foods, and dietary supplements. Wild Blueberries performed better in cells than cranberries, apples, red and green grapes.

It’s that time of year again, when we drag out boxes from the cold, dingy dungeon we call a basement and consider the best place to put a Christmas tree at Turning Tide Cottage.
