Nutrition: Research has identified phytochemicals in fruits, including raspberries, as being high in nutraceuticals bringing them into the medical spotlight. Nutraceuticals are substances that provide medical or health benefit and are believed to help fighting some cancers. In addition to nutraceuticals, raspberries contain antioxidants, which are compounds or groups of compounds that neutralize unstable molecules in humans. Examples of antioxidants include vitamins A, C, and E, lycopene and ellagic acid. National independent research suggests that consumption of fruits containing these compounds may slow the aging process in both the body and the brain.
Raspberries are rich in vitamin C, folate, iron, and potassium. The tiny seeds also provide high amounts of fiber, which helps in regulating cholesterol levels.
