MAQUI – The Original Super Fruit

Named 2009’s ‘It’ Fruit by Nutraceutical Business and Technology magazine, the maqui berry “holds a mystery and allure that is sure to infuse old ideas with new energy.”

The same energy. New energy.

It is no coincidence that Synaura discovered the maqui berry despite its relative obscurity; it was destined to be. The maqui berry is native to the Patagonia region in South America. For centuries, the indigenous tribe of Mapuche Indians in Southern and Central Chile used maqui for a variety of ailments, however, the extraordinary maqui berry has just recently surfaced in the United States. The timing was perfect. Synaura’s founders knew immediately that the exotic maqui super fruit was the unequivocal ingredient that they had been looking for; the final component to bring the company to fruition.

According to legend, the Mapuche Indians in South America regarded maqui as a sacred and powerful plant. The tribe used the maqui berry as an essential part of its ancient medical practices. History studies state that maqui was used for nourishment, its healing abilities, and to increase energy. But the most exciting and legendary use of maqui was the strength and stamina it provided to Mapuche warriors. For over 300 years the Mapuche Indians were the only Native American Indians in the entire Americas that were never conquered by an invading force. The Spanish conquistadors who were repeatedly defeated by the Mapuche tribes said that the extreme stamina and strength of the natives came from the daily consumption of a beverage made from the revered maqui berry. Drinking the sacred maqui juice several times a day, the Mapuche Indians sustained victory and remain the only unconquered group to this day.

Synaura has an infinite vision to remain unconquered in the multi level marketing industry. In other words, the company will be around for years to come, constantly enhancing products and formulations, creating dynamic trainings, and providing amazing incentives and commissions. Synaura wasn’t created overnight. Rather, a gradual evolution transformed one vision into one energy until it finally became a movement. The maqui berry has evolved as well, what began as a traditional indigenous remedy is now a modern antioxidant superpower. The same energy, the same breath, together we will be the first to market The Original Super Fruit in our industry.

Maqui is the most powerful botanical antioxidant known in the world, making it a stronger antioxidant than acai, mangosteen, goji, noni or even chocolate. The deep, dark, purple fruit grows from the aristotelia chilensis and is approximately the size of a large blueberry.

According to studies, maqui is also a powerful anti-inflammatory and has thermogenic properties, which can relieve pain caused by swelling and aid in weight loss. Other historical uses of maqui include treating health conditions such as skin inflammations, pain, disorders of the stomach, and fatigue. The maqui berry is typically taken orally but may be used externally to treat cuts, abrasions, and other wounds.

Modern science is now able to conduct studies to learn the science behind maqui and explain the reasons for its effectiveness. Independent lab studies continue to find more and more benefits to maqui.
