Benefits of Raspberry
1. Raspberry is an antioxidant food containing ellagic acid. They help prevent unwanted damage to cell membranes and other structures in the body by neutralizing free radicals.
2. They have the potential to inhibit cancer cell proliferation and tumor formation in various parts of the body, including the colon.
3. Eating 3 or more servings of raspberry per day may lower your risk of age-related macular degeneration (ARMD), the primary cause of vision loss in older adults.
