Berries may be the smallest fruits on earth, but they boast great health benefits. They are rich in vitamin C, which is known to protect our immune systems and prevent cancers. These are not the only health benefits of berries, some of them contain unique substances that would benefit our eyes, heart and overall health. Next time when we go to the supermarket, we should pay for attention that the berries deserve. They not only taste great, they also help us live better too! [1,2]
