Did you know that giving someone the Raspberries was actually a good thing?




Did you know that giving someone the Raspberries was actually a good thing?

A 2011 study on human subjects (not just rats), showed that consuming 60 grams of freeze-dried black raspberry powder a day for 1 to 9 weeks decreased tumor biomarkers associated with anti-cancer effects on certain genes involved in colorectal cancer (adenocarcinomas).

So give the raspberries frequently and enjoy them in good health.
