Organic Raw Incan Berries (Golden Berries) 5lb Bulk
Wilderness Poets Organic Raw Incan Berries Physalis peruviana, also known as Golden Berry or Cape Gooseberry. A "lost crop of the Incas", they continue to grow wild on shrubs throughout South America, where they are native. The fresh fruit is a glowing yellow cherry-like globe dangling inside a translucent, papery lantern. It is a relative of the tomatillo. But these yummy berries are bursting with tangy sweetness. When dried, they look like golden raisins, but are tart like a sour gummy candy. Nutritional benefits: Inca berries are a remarkable source of protein and Vitamin P (bioflavonoids), which possess anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antihistamine, anti-carcinogenic, and antiviral properties. They are high in phosphorous, vitamins A, C, B1, B2, B6 and B12. They are also extremely high in protein (16%) for a fruit and they are rich in pectin. * These statements have not been evaluated by the FDA.
