Purple-coloured foods contain a certain antioxidant called anthocyanin. This is the beautiful plant pigments which give fruit and veg their deep red-orange, purple or blue-violet hues.<\/p>

They are polyphenolic pigments that belong to the flavonoid group<\/p>

Many purple foods contain anthocyanins a\u00a0flavonoid<\/a>\u00a0with potent agents to protect DNA and genomic activity.<\/p>
