A personal conversation about cranberries, natural ingredients, domestic growers, and a new chapter in wellness education
The King of Cranberries, Captain Cran Man Stephen Lukawski, joins cohost Peter Mingils for a personal interview on the KISC My Health Radio Show. They’ll explore Stephen’s career evolution and the next big step in his work with cranberry ingredients.
After decades of pioneering cranberry innovations in Canada, Stephen has partnered with American manufacturer RFI to launch Cranova, a comprehensive line of whole-fruit cranberry ingredients sourced directly from domestic growers. In this conversation, he shares what inspired the partnership and why he believes a dependable supply chain and strong relationships with local American farmers matter to the future of natural ingredients.
Cranova: From Growers to Quality Control
The conversation looks at the value of sourcing cranberry ingredients close to home, including the importance of supporting domestic growers and building reliable supply. Stephen and Peter also discuss quality control and the role of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) testing in helping identify adulteration and verify ingredient quality.
For anyone curious about how natural ingredients move from growers into products, this is a chance to hear industry experience and perspective directly from a veteran who has spent decades in the cranberry sector.
Planet Cranberry and More to Explore
The interview also introduces Planet Cranberry, an upcoming e-commerce and educational platform intended to help consumers learn about cranberry wellness research beyond the familiar conversation about urinary tract health.
Stephen and Peter discuss how education can help people better understand the science being explored around cranberries and their potential wellness applications. The goal is to encourage informed curiosity and make useful information easier to find.
They also talk about Naturally Sustained Release (NSR), an innovative time-release delivery technology designed to protect sensitive bioactive ingredients from stomach degradation and help maximize their nutritional efficacy. The discussion offers listeners a look at how delivery technology may shape the development of future natural ingredient products.
