Berries have long been known to man as food, supplement, medicine, etc. There are a huge number of varieties and varieties of berries on Earth. They are delicious on their own, with sugar, with cream, in salads, yoghurts and even as sauces for meat. Home canning of berries dates back to ancient times. Today they are used to make compotes, liqueurs, jams, they are used as filling for pies, as decoration, etc. Recipes for dishes that include berries have been collected and passed down for many centuries.

Berries are often described as “ products of the highest quality”, extremely healthy, tasty, filled with vitamins and other nutrients. Are they truly a “food powerhouse” for humans, or are they just a good dessert, but nothing more? And what berries are the most beneficial? Research does show that berries are among the top fruits containing antioxidants, and that they are excellent sources of several chemicals that, according to researchers, help stop the development of cancer. However, other fruits and vegetables provide different nutrients and the same elements as well as berries. The best advice is to eat berries more often for their excellent taste, putting the health benefits in the background if other vegetables and fruits are included in the diet. Of course, there are diseases and other problems that can be helped by decoction or consumption of berries of a certain type. Berry lovers, “berry lovers,” will never agree that fruits or vegetables may seem tastier to someone or healthier than berries. Of course, this depends on personal preferences, but still one cannot help but take into account the fact that for many years (and even now) raspberries and raspberry jam have been used to fight the flu and colds, and viburnum to lower the temperature. So it's time for the berries! It's time to prepare them.
