“One of the best tasting and nutrition packed superfoods that I have ever had, and the star in both of my Peruvian superfoods books. Truly a culinary treat, the Pichuberry brings a unique flavor profile that enhances dishes both savory and sweet.
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA (PRWEB) 
Albertsons stores is the newest market in the United States to enjoy the healthiest fruit Pichuberry®, a nutrient-rich, antioxidant-packed berry, native to Peru and the Lost Incan Civilization. Studies show the Pichuberry® contains withanolides, a rare group of antioxidants shown to reduce oxidative stress and support the immune system fight against carcinogens.
Manuel Villacorta, M.S., R.D., a nationally respected dietitian and author of two books, Peruvian Power Foods and Whole Body Reboot: The Peruvian Superfoods Diet, serves as a national spokesperson for the fruit, which is also featured in the books. “The Pichuberry,” notes Villacorta, “is deliciously sweet when ripe, with a mildly tart finish. In terms of its nutritional and health benefits, the Pichuberry is peerless.” Just 3/4 cup of pichuberries provides 39% of your daily value of Vitamin D and is also rich in other vitamins and anti-oxidants. It is high in not only protein-1.7 grams per serving (3.5oz)-but also heart-healthy fatty acids. The Pichuberry® also has a remarkably low glycemic index of 25 (compared to GI of 50 for blueberries and 53 for the pomegranate) and just 65 calories per serving, making it a diabetic and weight-loss friendly fruit.
