What are the health benefits of eating boysenberries during pregnancy

Boysenberry is an edible fruit produced by the blend of a European raspberry, common blackberry, an American dewberry and a Loganberry. It is an excellent source of the vitamin B complex – folate. Folate helps in neural tube formation and red blood cells formation in prenatal babies. Folic acid also ensures the birth of steady weight infants. Boysenberries are also rich in vitamin C, which helps strengthen your bones and immunity. This is essential given your body’s resistance is relatively low during pregnancy. Boysenberries also contain fibre which prevents constipation and aids in easy bowel movement. Boysenberries are also known to possess antiinflammatory and antioxidant properties.
