Research has shown that barberries, high in antioxidants, can help reduce acne, says 17 year-old Abalro chief executive Robert Donohoe.
Three high school students, the first to import the superfood, barberries, into New Zealand are hoping their new business will see them winging their way to Expo 2020 in Dubai next January. From Bayfield High School in Dunedin, they started importing the tart, red barberries from Iran last year. They have them dehydrated and processed into a powder which is added to foods to boost nutrition and provide antioxidants. The teenagers set up their company, Abalro Health, under the Young Enterprises Scheme. Chief executive, 17-year-old Robert Donohoe, said barberries had been shown to reduce acne. While teenagers were the target market, others with acne would benefit too.
