More than just a sweet treat, our Mulberries are a true superfood. They are a rich source of resveratrol which is found primarily in red wine. Mulberry fruits and leaves also contain a wide variety of vitamins, minerals and other important nutrients. Mulberries contains moranoline, which delays the absorption of carbohydrates and promotes healthy glucose levels already within normal range. The anthocyanins in Mulberry are strong antioxidants and may provide cardiovascular protection, immune enhancement and stress reduction as potential health benefits.
Besides being an antioxidant resveratrol is an anti-mutagen and a strong anti-inflammatory. An anti-mutagen is a compound that inhibits the mutation of healthy normal cells into cancerous growths and tumors. Chronic inflammation is believed to be at the root of many diseases including heart disease and cancer. Synthetic anti-inflammatories cannot be taken on a regular basis to prevent chronic inflammation without risking other health problems. Natural anti-inflammatories, on the other hand, are found primarily in plant foods and can be consumed on a regular basis throughout a person's life with no side effects. Since it is one of the natural anti-inflammatories, it is believed to be heart healthy and that some of the possible benefits of resveratrol may include improvement of chronic inflammation and other diseases associated with chronic inflammation, anti-aging effect on cells due to combating free radical damage.
Mulberry has long been used in traditional medicines. Among its many uses, it has been given as a tonic for kidneys, fatigue, anemia and weakness. Clinical research has shown that Mulberry can provide multiple health benefits, including helping to promote healthy glucose levels; encouraging healthy cellular replication and membrane stability; promoting healthy cholesterol; and controlling the digestion of carbohydrates.
