A Personal Note
I recently discovered Incan Berries and can’t believe this intriguing product escaped my attention for so long. Incan Berries have an incredible taste that is exotic, yet familiar. Their flavor is like a lemony sweet candy without being overly tart and sugary.
These berries are so wonderful and healthy that we created a new granola flavor featuring them. You can also buy them in one pound bulk bags and add them to your smoothies, cereals and baked goods. They’re particularly good when substituted for raisins in banana bread or oatmeal cookies.—Alan Friedman, Manager, Good Cause Wellness
How do Incan Berries Taste?
Incan berries have an exotic sweet taste with a consistency similar to raisins. They’re full of tiny, chewable seeds that release a wonderful flavor. Incan Berries have an appealing yellow/orange appearance and are slightly larger than a raisin or goji berry.
The Incan Berry (physalis peruviana) is also called the Cape Gooseberry or Goldenberry.
What nutrients do Incan Berries provide?
Incan Berries are rich in important nutrients that provide antioxidant protection and support many body functions. Some of the nutrients in Incan Berries are:
Vitamin P (also know as flavonoids) helps the body absorb Vitamin C, an important antioxidant. Flavonoids support healthy blood vessels and have anti-inflammatory properties.
Pectin is a soluble fiber that helps lower blood cholesterol levels and glucose levels.
Vitamin A boosts the immune system, helps to grow and repair body tissues and may help protect the skin against sun damage.
Vitamin C contains powerful antioxidants called flavonoids. Flavonoids protect the heart and blood vessels from free radical damage. Vitamin C also helps maintain good HDL cholesterol levels and aids in the production of collagen and glycosaminoglycan, which help strengthen arterial walls.
B Vitamins support your nervous system, help break down sugar and neutralize the amino acid homocysteine, which in high levels may cause atherosclerosis.
Phosphorous is a mineral that works to increase energy and endurance. It is also vital for bone strength.
Protein is abundant in Incan Berries. Protein supports a strong immune system and maintains a variety of body structures like healthy skin, nails and hair. The berries are 16% protein and supply a wonderful plant-based, non-fat source of protein.
Where are Incan Berries grown?
Our Incan Berries are wild-crafted in South America. They are raw, wild-crafted, sun-dried, unsprayed and free of heavy metals, chemicals and pesticides.
How do I use Incan Berries?
Try them in a smoothie, with your favorite cereal, in baked goods or just right from the bag. They do not require refrigeration.
