Sunfood Nutrition™ is proud to introduce an ancient old, yet brand new super-berry originally from Persia to the raw and living foods world! Barberries! Their tart and tangy flavor adds an amazing new taste dimension to any food dish you can imagine. Sweet or savory, for snacks or meals, raw barberries are ready to add their bright, refreshing flavor to any recipe at any time of the day. They are great for kids and great to add to trail mixes!
While Sunfood Nutrition™ raw barberries taste great on their own and with all other raw foods, the most incredible feature of raw barberries is their deep crimson coloration, a sign of high antioxidant content in the form of Vitamin C. Richly-colored foods are one of the most important factors of a healthy diet, as discussed in The Sunfood Diet Success System by David Wolfe and The Rainbow Green Live Food Cuisine by Dr. Gabriel Cousens.
Recent research indicates that barberries have antibacterial properties, and that moderate consumption may lead to a calming effect on the nervous system. Barberries can serve as a powerful promoter of health and well-being, and this characteristic is matched by their ability to complement so many other foods with their uniquely sweet-tart-and-tangy flavor.
Enjoying Sunfood Nutrition™ Barberries
- Barberries may be used in place of cranberries in salads or in any dish were a slightly tart, fruity flavor is desired.
- Try them in a trail mix with Cacao Nibs, Goji Berries, Hemp Seeds, and dried fruit and nuts. They are delicious with shredded Coconut and Pecans!
- Sprinkle raw barberries on any raw granola or spouted cereal in the morning for a taste that is sure to wake up your palate!
- Barberries make an excellent addition to healing herbal tea made with any of the Amazonian Herbs in David Wolfe's Tea Lover's Package.
