The English name of the cranberry is derived from the name crane berries, as the stamens of the flowers form a beak that reminded the first settlers of America of a crane's beak. It is considered the strongest berry in the world, which the Indians of North America already used to extract poison from arrow wounds. Sailors also liked to prevent scurvy with cranberries. Today, the anti-inflammatory effect of cranberries is scientifically proven, which is why it is often used for urinary tract and kidney infections.
