Vaccinium anthonyi

Vaccinium anthonyi, also known as Anthony's blueberry, is a rare and endemic species of flowering plant in the heath family (Ericaceae) that is native to Hawaii.

The medicinal properties of Vaccinium anthonyi lie in its high concentration of anthocyanins, which have been shown to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

The health benefits of this plant include reducing inflammation, improving cardiovascular health, and potentially lowering the risk of certain diseases such as cancer and diabetes.

Vaccinium anthonyi can be consumed as a raw fruit, used in herbal teas, or processed into supplements, with some studies suggesting that it may be effective in reducing oxidative stress and improving overall well-being.
