Reflecting its mission to take cranberry “beyond UTIs,” Fruit d’Or, the world’s largest grower and processor of cranberries, has launched Oral Cran, an ingredient expressly for the natural oral care market. The cranberry powder is specially formulated and processed as a branded cranberry ingredient for the oral health care industry.
 
Oral Cran contains all-natural, whole food cranberry powder, no preservatives or excipients. Oral Cran is organic, non-GMO and can be used by people of all ages to achieve long-term oral/dental health. Oral Cran is a healthy alternative to help fight against cavities, plaque buildup, gum bleeding and bad breath.
 
“It’s a beauty secret for healthy teeth. You can see the difference and feel the results over a couple of applications,” commented Stephen Lukawski, director of sales and business development.
 
Oral Cran, which has a neutral taste, is meant to be combined with toothpaste on the toothbrush for brushing teeth.
 
Studies show that bacteria issues in the mouth are related to heart disease and even linked to causing pneumonia. "Cranberry shows great promise in the protection of teeth and support against oral diseases from bacteria," Mr. Lukawski said. The PACs in Oral Cran act as scrubbing agents and reduce the biofilm, preventing bacteria from colonizing on teeth and gums.
 
A recent pilot study, conducted by Canada dentist Dr. Hilary Rodrigues, showed that 33 of his patients who had bleeding gums all exhibited signs of improvement after brushing their teeth with Oral Cran.
 
“The success is indeed almost 100% positive,” reported Dr. Rodrigues. “The periodontal condition has improved and in all cases bleeding from the gums has ended. Swelling of gums was reduced, bad breath was eliminated and blue-tinged gums turned back to a normal pink color.”
