Willamette Valley Fruit Company Black Raspberry All-Natural IQF Frozen Fruit, 2-Pound Reusable Polybags (Pack of 3) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Dr. Gary Stoner at Ohio State University has done a great deal of research on black raspberries; he discovered that ellagic acid inhibited tumor growth. Dr. Stoner's articles on black raspberries appears in the first Comment.

Black raspberries have prevented cancers in Stoner's lab rats. He is conducting human trials to determine whether black raspberries (and in what forms) will prevent human cancers. Early studies show that the berries slow tumor growth, and reduce cancer risk significantly.

Benefits:

The richest source of ellagic acid: an effective anti-tumor agent but only in the seeds and the pulp, not the juice.

The highest anti-oxidant activity of any other berry.

High in anthocyanins, anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatories that give the dark purple color.

Dr. Stoner's patients are given 2 ounces of freeze-dried black raspberries daily, the equivalent of about a pound of berries a day.

Whole fresh berries are hard to find and available only a few weeks a year, and subject to rot. Trader Joes sells frozen black raspberries in our area, but they are not always available. Strawberries and blackberries are a pretty good substitute, but blueberries, despite their heart benefits, don't help as an anti-cancer agent.

Willamette Valley Fruit Company is a good and reliable source of frozen black raspberries if you don't have a local source; we've purchased their products several times in the past. They offer two sizes of packaging: Willamette Valley Fruit Company Black Raspberry All-Natural IQF Frozen Fruit, 2-Pound Reusable Polybags (Pack of 3) and Willamette Valley Fruit Company Black Raspberry All-Natural IQF Frozen Fruit, 8-Pound Bulk Box.
