Benefits of Black berries

How to Eat Blackberries

It is advisable to eat the fruits raw. However, you should be careful to consume only the ripened ones. They would be plump, glossy and very darkcolored. A cup of berries would supply your body with essential nutrients like Vitamin K, folic acid, manganese, magnesium, copper and dietary fiber. Vitamin K is helpful in blood clotting and also helps in the absorption of calcium.
