ellagitannins
is a type of natural phytochemical polymer found in many berry like fruits. Once ellagitannins are consumed, they are converted into ellagic acid. In this state, ellagic acid is responsible for helping to protect against cancer causing free radicals, and can also aid in damaged cell regeneration and proper cell apoptosis.
