✿ Raspberry Pros - Raspberries are an excellent source of flavanoids, vitamin C, fiber, manganese, and ellagic acid. Ellagic acid is a potent antioxidant that protects chromosomes from damage, as well as blocking cancer causing pollutants, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) found in cigarette smoke and toxic chemicals such as benzopyrene.
✿ Raspberry Cons - Raspberries contain moderate levels of oxalates, which should be avoided by people with a history of calcium oxalate kidney stones. Like other berries, pesticide residue should be washed off before eating.
✿ Pick Your Own Advantages - The freshest fruits and vegetables generally have the highest nutritional value. There are approximately twenty species of raspberries, but most commercially grown raspberries are Meekers. Pick-your-own fruits do not have to be specially bred to withstand transportation across the country or across the globe; they can be better tasting berries.
