Puritan’s Pride Cranberry Fruit Concentrate with C & E Review – The Bottom Line

Puritan’s Pride Cranberry Fruit Concentrate with C and E appears to be a viable supplement. It has the added benefits of Vitamin C and E that add an extra boost of protection from harmful toxins. Aside from the straightforward information about what is contained in the product, there is not much more information that Puritan’s Pride discloses about this supplement. With so many types of cranberry supplements that have a variety of benefits available on the market, someone looking to make an informed decision about what type of supplement they want to take wouldn’t be able to do so just based on the information Puritan’s Pride has on their page. Puritan’s Pride recommends taking 6 capsules daily and when compared to other similar products, this dosage is exorbitantly high and concerning.
