Goldenberry

The goldenberry (ground cherries) which is a fruit commonly produced and consumed in Southern America countries has attracted a great deal of attention although it doesn’t grow up naturally in our country.

And what is this magical fruit?

“Altın Çilek” dried fruits, the Turkish name for “goldenberry” literally translated into Turkish, are known as ‘Inca cherries, ground cherries’ translated from English. The sourish fruits colloquially are consumed mostly as fresh or used as fruit juice or in the syrup, marmalade making in Peru and Colombia.

The colloquial effects of fruits related to liver functions, visual problems and reducing the high cholesterol may be associated with their antioxidant features. It has been indicated in the studies that it has an effect that will prevent the destruction of the liver. In another study conducted on diabetic animals, it has been stated that it reduces the blood sugar in the rate of 30% when it is applied for 5 days. It has also been supported as a result of the experiments that the juice of the fruit increases the vision.

And does this fruit contribute to the weight loss?

There isn’t any scientific study that supports this in relation to its weight loss effects. Actually, the plant is not being used colloquially in relation to the weight loss in Southern America. The goldenberry which was popular in the previous years has gone like a bomb. Many fruits being locally produced in our country are more valuable than the berry called golden thanks to their antioxidant feature and rich vitamin content. It has been shown in the scientific studied that rosehip fruits are one of the richest resources due to Vitamin C, carotenoids, as well as the polyphenolic components and, have a very strong antioxidant effect.
