Why to include Blackberries in your daily Diet ?

Nowadays, when we see a larger outcry for eating healthy food, the first word that comes to our mind is “Immunity”. We need to eat something which can build our immunity and save us from various diseases, the solution that everybody proposes is to take vitamin C tablets but is taking Vitamin C tablets the real solution for building immunity. The answer is ”NO” , if we go according to our ancient science and ayurveda, the food that we eat is divided into three categories which is Satvik,Rajsik and Tamsik.

Satvik food is something which gives us happiness, builds our mood and gives us energy and is directly extracted from Mother Nature

Rajsik food is something which enlightens our taste buds and gives us momentary happiness

Tamsik food  is something which is stale and lost its colour.

Now the question where can we find good immunity boosting Satvik food, the answer is we need to include blackberries in our diet and throw away our Vitamin C tablets
