Blackberries against Sugar
The fruit of the blackberry bush (Rubus fruticosus), which belongs to the rose family, can be found in both wild and cultivated variations. There are styptic, anti-inflammatory, and antidiabetic properties attributed to the blackberry. One of the youngest varieties is the thornlessly cultivated “Thornfree.” The Choctaw, Navajo, and Loch Ness varieties are also particularly delicious--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
