White mulberry fruit

Health benefits of white mulberry:

Dried white mulberries contain high amounts of vitamin C, which acts as a powerful antioxidant, supporting the immune system and protecting the body from free radicals. The fruit is also a source of iron, potassium, phosphorus, and magnesium, which support circulatory and muscular function. Additionally, white mulberries are rich in polyphenols, such as resveratrol , which have strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Mulberries are also a source of dietary fiber , which improves intestinal peristalsis, aids digestion, and prevents constipation.

White mulberry owes its greatest popularity, however, to a substance that inhibits the breakdown of sugars. This is why these sweet fruits are used to help fight excess weight and can be an important part of the diet of people with diabetes. Mulberry helps lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels, and also reduces cravings for sweets.

Uses of white mulberry fruit:

Dried mulberries can be used to prepare infusions and decoctions. They have a sweet, slightly nutty flavor that complements many recipes, both sweet and savory.

Dried fruit can also be eaten on its own or as an addition to oatmeal, muesli, smoothies, sweet pastries, salads or desserts.
