Cranberry: the red berry of North America

The cranberry, called canneberge in French (Vaccinium macrocarpon), is a small creeping shrub of the Ericaceae family, like the blueberry. Native to North America, it grows in bogs and in acidic, damp soils.

Its bright red berries, with a very tart taste, were already eaten by Indigenous peoples. Now grown on a large scale in the United States and Canada, it is best known as juice, dried berries and extract.

A red berry

The fruit of a shrub from North American bogs.

Rich in PACs

Type-A proanthocyanidins, characteristic of this berry.

A sour taste

Rarely eaten raw, it is often sweetened or concentrated into an extract.

Composition

What does cranberry extract contain?

The cranberry owes its colour and taste to several families of natural compounds:

Proanthocyanidins

PACs, polyphenols of which the cranberry contains a particular form, known as type A.

Anthocyanins

The pigments that give the berries their bright red colour.

Organic acids

Responsible for its sour taste, along with a little vitamin C.

Cultivation and forms

Cranberry juice, dried berries or extract?

Cranberries are often harvested by flooding: the fields are submerged and the berries, which contain air pockets, float to the surface. As they are very sour, the juice and dried berries sold commercially are generally sweetened.

Food supplements tend to use a concentrated extract, without sugar, often standardised for PACs. It should not be confused with the smaller European cranberry (Vaccinium oxycoccos), nor with the lingonberry.

What research says

Cranberry: where does the science stand?

Researchers are mainly interested in type-A proanthocyanidins, their structure and how to measure them. Not all PAC assay methods give the same results, which makes it difficult to compare extracts.

To date, no health claim relating to cranberry is authorised in the European Union. This research therefore does not allow any particular effect to be attributed to cranberry or to a food supplement containing it.

Buying guide

How to choose a cranberry food supplement?

The Latin name

Check for the name Vaccinium macrocarpon in the composition.

The PAC content

Look for the amount of proanthocyanidins per dose, in mg.

The type of extract

A concentrated extract (for example 10:1) corresponds to a larger quantity of berries.

Alone or combined

The extract is offered on its own or with other plants, such as hibiscus.

Frequently asked questions

Cranberry FAQ

Are cranberry and canneberge the same thing?

Yes. Canneberge is the French name for cranberry; both refer to the same berry, Vaccinium macrocarpon, sometimes also called the large cranberry.

What does PAC mean on a cranberry extract?

PAC stands for proanthocyanidins, polyphenols found in the berry. The PAC content makes it possible to compare extracts, provided it is measured using the same method.

Cranberry extract or cranberry juice?

Commercial juice is often sweetened to soften its acidity. The extract, concentrated and standardised, is taken in capsules or sachets, with no added sugar.

Where can I buy a cranberry food supplement?

In pharmacies, organic shops or online. At NATURAMedicatrix, the cranberry range includes a single extract and combined formulas. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, ask your doctor for advice.
