The blackberries (to the like blueberries), have a lot of vitamins and minerals that help positively to enjoy optimal health.

Not surprisingly, among the most important vitamins are the presence of vitamin E and C, in addition to having a flavonoid pigment called anthocyanin, which acts as an antioxidant.

Briefly explained, anthocyanin is a plant enzyme that gives blackberries their particular color, and which is the key to both their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
