Gooseberry The gooseberry is a caduceus shrub
indigenous to Central and Northern Europe with juicy
fruits of 10 - 20 mm diameter in many varieties with
different colours of red, green, or white, all with
strong, sour flavour. Gooseberries are rich in vitamins,
including Vitamin C, minerals and secondary vegetal
substances, and are also an excellent source of silicon,
and for this reason are very good for our connective
tissue. Gooseberries are also thought to possess other
important properties, such as the purification and
detoxification of the blood from heavy metal
contamination and the drainage of the human organism in
general. |
