In the last 3 months, I have consumed a lot of berries. I often make it into juice and I drink it twice a day. I take it in the morning, when I wake up and before going to bed. From the information I read, it turns out that there are many benefits of this berry. Some time ago, I bought enough berries. I bought strawberry, pureberry and mulberry. Here are the benefits :
1#. Strawberries
Strawberry is the most familiar fruit in Indonesia. The fruit is easy to find and many are starting to sell it. Even the price tag is pretty good for the fruit. There is a lot of value in this fruit. In this fruit, it has abundant vitamin C in the fruit.
In addition, it has folic acid, fiber and antioxidants. In addition, this fruit has the capacity to lower blood pressure and cholesterol, help manage blood sugar and fight the effects of aging on the brain. Strawberry has a high sugar content, but it turns out this fruit has a low glycemic index.

2#. Mulberry
The benefits of mulberry can be felt by people with anemia. Because iron is not as much in red meat. Iron helps the body produce red blood cells. This is to prevent anemia from experiencing symptoms that interfere with activities. However, consumption of mulberry is another alternative.
3#. Raspberries
The raspberry fiber content in this berry helps prevent constipation and nourishes the digestive tract. And that's enough to make bowel movements more regular. In addition, fiber can help manage blood pressure and support diet. On the other hand, fruit contains high levels of antioxidants that can eliminate blue light. It protects the eyes from macular degeneration.

There are many benefits right? This week I bought 2 kilograms of berries. That's quite a lot for me. So, I made jam from this fruit. I can mix it with bread and others. Here's how to make it.
Berries. The total I use is about kilogram
Honey, to taste. Since I'm reducing my sugar consumption, another alternative I use is honey. If you continue to consume sugar, you don't have to use too much sugar. Because it will remove the original taste of the berry.

How to make:
Wash the fruit first. After that, cut all the berries into smaller sizes. This makes the fruit easier to crumble when cooked.
Prepare a frying pan for cooking jam. When the pan is hot, add the berries to it. And add honey.
Press the fruit until it breaks. The fruit ripens until the water in the fruit runs out. I cooked it for about 30 minutes.
Berry jam is ready to use. I usually use bread to use this jam. And I also add milk or warm water.
