Research
The Queen Garnet plum was developed in Australia through traditional, non-GMO cultivation to naturally enhance its unique nutrient profile. More than just a fruit, it has been independently studied by leading research institutions for its exceptionally high levels of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds.
These findings have positioned the Queen Garnet as one of nature’s most nutrient-dense plums, a remarkable ingredient with the potential to support wellbeing when enjoyed as part of a balanced lifestyle.
Real Health Benefits
Inspired by its health benefits, leading Australian universities and scientific organisations have undertaken exciting research to explore the potential of the Queen Garnet plum. Research has demonstrated that this fruit:
