Berry Bliss
08/20/2024

We've heard that food is medicine and medicine is food (thanks Aristotle), and we know that a plant based diet high in unprocessed foods and good fiber is key... and we know all about super foods thanks to Instagram (Kale anyone?), but what does the science say about the sweet science of berries, the delicious superfood we can get behind?

Per this review of multiple clinical studies, "Most of the berries have outstanding beneficial roles in many body systems of humans such as gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, immune, and nervous systems. Furthermore, they are effective on some metabolic disorders and several types of cancer."

Let's break that down. Berries are known to have/be:

  • Anti-diabetic
  • Anti-carcinogenic
  • Anti-Obesity
  • Anti-Inflammatory
  • Antimicrobial
  • High antioxidant levels
  • Vitamins A, C, and E, and the B complex vitamins
  • Rich in polyphenols.
  • Positive effects on the gastrointestinal system, metabolism-related diseases, the cardiovascular system, the immune system, the nervous system and numerous types of cancers

To read a more detailed explanation of how berries interact with all the body systems be sure to read the study - and eat some berries whilst you're at it!
