Why Doctor Health Was So Impressed by the Haskap Berry

Sweet Prairie Haskap CEO Courtney Wilson was recently featured on the podcast Doctor Health - a show that for over 30 years has shared the latest updates in medicine, fitness, nutrition, and wellness. The host, David Snow, was blown over by “the better berry” - saying he had taken some Sweet Prairie Haskap  that morning before a bike ride, and felt more energized and stamina on his ride!


So what impressed Doctor Health so much? Well, with such a nutritionally dense powerhouse like the haskap berry, it’s not hard to be blown away. Here are just some takeaways from the podcast that left him impressed by the little blue powerhouse known as the haskap berry:


  • Haskap berries are a hidden gem among the world’s superfoods. While pomegranates and blueberries are well-known for their antioxidant properties, haskap berries have the highest level of antioxidants of any berry. 

  • Haskap berries are native to cold weather climates and are known for their hardiness and ability to withstand harsh winters. Much like the known metaphor “the grape that struggles most on the vine makes the best wine”, these harsh conditions make the haskap berry a nutrient powerhouse 

  • The high level of anthocyanins (6x that of a blueberry!) give the haskap berry their dark purple pigment. They are the most anthocyanin-rich of any berry in the world. 

  • The haskap berry is versatile. It can be used as a natural food-based color dye, added to salad dressings LINK or used to glaze pastries. Use Sweet Prairie Haskap to add flavor and nutrients into yogurt, oatmeal, popsicles, jam, tea, or overnight oats. 

  • The haskap berry has anti-inflammatory properties and can help with natural energy, cognitive support, memory improvement, focus, and boosting immunity.


Haskap berries are a superfood powerhouse that should not be overlooked. They are the most nutrient-dense berries in the world, with high levels of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. They are versatile and can be used in many ways, making them a delicious addition to any diet. No wonder Doctor Health was impressed!
