blackberries

The sweet, juicy, mouth watering flavor of fresh blackberries is complimented by their natural health benefits. Prized for their sweet, pungent flavor, blackberries are a good source of vitamin C, folic acid, fiber, potassium, calcium and iron. Next to black raspberries and blueberries, blackberries have one of the highest levels of antioxidants; natural substances that slow the aging process and guard against cancer and heart disease. Many may wonder if taking a nutritional supplement will provide the same benefits, however not necessarily so. It is the combination of phytochemicals working together with the fiber, vitamins and minerals which make the benefits of blackberries so effective.
