Nono berries, the super fruits with remarkable health benefits, are well-known by everyone. They act as potent antioxidant, antifungal agent, cholesterol reducer etc.
On the other hand, few people are familiar with the mulberry, another super berry with extraordinary medicinal properties.
Not long ago, some foreign researchers concluded that the white mulberry is a super herb. It has the ability to reduce cholesterol, to protect against heart disease, to reduce the risk of diabetes, and to aid weight loss.
Even our ancestors were fully aware of the potent medicinal properties of this herb. Even though they didn’t have any scientific proof, they were well familiar with its beneficial effects thanks to their own experience.
The nutritional value of this super berry is more than amazing. It is high in fiber content and only 1/3 of a glass satisfies the daily needs of this nutrient. Many studies suggest that the mulberry leaf contains compounds which are capable of regulating the blood sugar levels. As a matter of fact, the leaves were used as a folk remedy for diabetes type 2.
This sweet herb, but unfortunately not appreciated enough, is able to significantly reduce cholesterol levels, and to enhance the function of the digestive system.
As suggested by a study conducted at the University of Texas, this amazing herb is high in resveratrol, a natural phenol which helps in fight against various tumor types as well as against heart disease.
The white mulberry is richer in antioxidants than other berries, but it contains half the amount of sugar when compared to other berries, such as raisins.
