Further Food Commentary:

With over 100 phytonutrients, pomegranates are great to reduce inflammation and vitamin E rich, which aids in the reduction in one's risk of heart disease. Freeze leftovers to use as dessert topping, salad topping or an addition to breakfast porridge or yogurt. Blackberries are grown on vine and/or thorny bushes and are technically drupelets like grapes. The dark, glossy 'flashy flavonoid' color of blackberries is due to the phytonutrient, anthocyanins and is a powerful way to protect one's brain from oxidative stress and may reduce effects of age related Alzheimer's and dementia.
