Berries for Good Health - The Health Benefits and Nutrition of Berries

I stumbled upon this article that summarizes some of the nutritional benefits of berries.

Berries for Good Health - The Health Benefits and Nutrition of Berries:
"Berries in general are a good source of vitamins and phytochemicals.
Phytochemicals are components of fruits or vegetables that may help to prevent
diseases...."
While berries out of season are not both expensive and not very good (we rarely carry them for those reasons), frozen berries have most of the benefits of fresh fruit and at a fraction of the cost.
