I wonder if this includes dried cranberries, of which I eat a ton.

Yeah, and why cranberries. The article says flavinoids are responsible. But a lot of foods, and other berries have lots of flavinoids. Cranberries are typically imported. According to WebMD blackberries are very high and blueberries. Those you can grow or get local, but these are seasonal. My question would be like yours. How much does freezing or freeze-drying destroy the flavanoids?

"Cranberries are typically imported."

How many are imported?
Here are the domestic production numbers for 2021 -

"In 2021, almost 354 thousand tons of cranberries were produced in the U.S."

Myself - being a borderline 'Piney' by location of my upbringing,
I felt that this thread would not be complete without
an image of domestic cranberry harvesting in rural
Burlington county New Jersey.

Note: Some people define a 'Piney' as a New Jersey 'redneck'.
And likewise, many people take offense at that awful slur. (-:
