Introducing

Whole Saskatoon Berry Extractsfrom North American BioExtracts Inc.

Saskatoon Berry is really a Plum. A super-fruit plum with blueberry and cranberry food and beverage applications and ..

a new taste and a new story and new saskatoon berry product extracts for the food ingredients industry with combination

nutraceutical benefits.

Saskatoon berry is officially: Amelanchier alnifolia Nutt., also known as the Serviceberry, June berry, Shadbery, Sugar pearIndian pear. An important component of pemmican, an historic food stuff.

Saskatoon berries are a emerging superfruit grown in Western Canada and northern USA, with a distinctive taste and densely

packed with powerful phytonutrients and especially rich in PACs and fiber.

Saskatoons qualify as a 'superfruit', with levels of antioxidant polyphenols and phytonutrients on par with those of blueberry

and bilberry and a polyphenol profile very similar to chokeberry and uniquely high levels of specific cancer fighting PACs and

gastrointestinal friendly fruit fiber.

North American BioExtracts has licensed the proprietary extraction manufacturing capability of The BGL LLC to create unique

extracts from the saskatoon berry species that utilizes the whole fruit, the juice, the pomace and the seed. The BGL LLC

capability was chosen as the product development partner by North American BioExtracts because of their success indeveloping superior cranberry, raspberry and other berry extracts and demonstrating their nutritional utility for humans and for

the feed industry.

North American BioExtracts is proud to introduce our new Saskatoon Berry Extract line comprising of:

Whole fruit powder milled to a coarse or fine particle size for food and beverage formulations and for direct

addition to toppings, yogurts and smoothies etc.

Dried pomace powder milled as above and with similar applications where a higher PAC and anti-oxidant

profile is preferred.

Dried and milled extrudate from seeds that produces a high protein, high fiber and high anti-oxidantpowder for use as an additive to enhance protein and fiber levels in many foods and beverage

applications.

BGL LLC owns granted patents and has patents applied for that protect its extraction technology and

product applications. This proprietary capability can provide you with important business

applications advantages.

North American BioExtracts has applied for patents that protect the inventions developed to create

these Saskatoon Berry Extracts.

Nutrition and Clinical studies indicate the phyto-ingredients

in Saskatoon Berries fight:

OXIDATIVE STRESS with...

Anthocyanins : Studies indicate anthocyanin-rich fruits help to reduceoxidative stress associated withaging.[23][24][30]

Antioxidant activity: Consuming antioxidant-rich foods during meals reduces the oxidative stress associated witheating, says a new study.[25] Oxidative stress has been linked to an increased risk of various diseases

including cancer, Alzheimer's, and cardiovascular disease.[26]

CHOLESTEROL with...

Phytosterols: 0.8% of seed oil is -sitosterol which reduces serum LDL cholesterol and artherosclerotic risk.[6]

DIVERTICULOSISwith...

Fibre: The #1 doctor recommended preventative measure for diverticulosis is a high fibre diet.[22][29]

INFLAMATIONwith...Anthocyanins: Cyanidin-3-glycoside shows Cox-2 inhibitory effects.[27]

COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT with...

Polyphenols: A polyphenol-rich berry extract boosts cognitive performance.[28]

Saskatoon Berries have compelling ingredient benefits:Initial TAG (triacyl glycerol) and tocopherol profiling suggests good oxidative stability of the oil. [6] Also, repea

sales can be expected from sustained consumer demand which is likely to be stimulated by studies like this one

Anthocyanin absorption improves during long term (months) berry ingestion, compounding the beneficiaeffects.[31]

Nutrition and Clinical studies indicate the phyto-ingredients

in Saskatoon Berries fight:CANCER with...

Polyphenols: A high dietary polyphenol intake can cause a 24 per cent reduction in risk of lung cancer.[8]

Procyanidins and manganese: Mayo clinic study, 35000 women: Dietary intakes of procyanidin and manganesewere associated with 30% and 38% reductions in non-Hodgkin lymphomas.

[9]

Anthocyanins: Cyanidin-3-glucoside shows chemopreventive[10] and chemotherapeutic activity in vivo, with tumorsdecreasing 45% with cyanidin-3-glucoside treatment.

[11]

Chlorogenic acid: Treatment of breast cancer cells with chlorogenic acid lowers cancer cell viability.[12]

HEART DISEASE with...

Fibre: Clinical studies show that a high dietary fiber intake links to a 40% lower risk of coronary heart disease.[13]

Polyphenols: Serving fruits rich in flavonoids "has shown to be inversely related to coronary heart diseasemortality".[14][15]

Chlorogenic acid: mice gained anti-hypertensive benefits from chlorogenic acid.[16]

Anthocyanins: Research shows anthocyanins from fruits "inhibit in vitro oxidation of human low-densitylipoprotein".

[17][18]

DIABETES with ...

Fibre: Soluble fibre delays gastric (stomach) emptying and retards the entry of glucose into the bloodstream.[13]

Manganese: Manganese is important in energy metabolism and reduces hyperglycemia.[19]

Anthocyanins: Cyanidin-3-galactoside and cyanidin-3-glucoside are alpha-glucosidase inhibitors t hat slowconversion of carbohydrates to glucose thus helping to regulate blood glucose levels in diabetics.[20]

Cyanidin-3-glucoside also has a direct effect on pancreatic-cells.[21]
