The Merry Berry Series: Eat your blackberry instead!


The blackberry resembles morsels of caviar, but there's nothing fishy about its nutritional benefits!


The berries were used for their healing benefits way back during the time of the Ancient Greeks who prescribed it for gout.


 Did you know that blackberries have high tannin content that helps tighten tissues and may aid the relief of diarrhoea! Tannins may also have anti tumour properties.

It's also a rich source of Vit C, E and ellagic cid; all of which are reported to have the ability to combat cancer!
