Aids in cases of Diabetes
Aronia was also proven beneficial for diabetic people. The active components of this berry help lower blood sugar levels and also act in insulin production. According to a 2002 study, aronia can keep blood sugar levels under control in diabetic people. Diabetic patients were asked to drink 7 ounces of aronia juice, without any added sugar, every day for three months. The results showed a reduction in glucose levels of the patients while fasting.
