Turkish Mulberries

Mulberries, also known as morus fruit, are both sweet and nutritious. They are high in vitamin C, iron, calcium, and protein, and are a good source of dietary fiber. Our organic mulberries are picked from the trees in Dut Village (Mulberry Village) in Turkey, and sun dried.

Since ancient times, mulberries have been highly valued. Charlemagne, emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, ordered them cultivated as a useful plant on the imperial farm, and Syrup of Mulberries is mentioned in Spain's Calendar of Cordova for the year 961. In Chinese Medicine, mulberries are classified as a blood tonic. They have been used medicinally to:

Benefit the kidneys
Treat weakness and fatigue
Correct anemia
Help protect against cancer
Reverse premature graying of the hair
Promote sleep
Calm the mind

Mulberries are a source of resveratrol, a plant compound also found in red wine grapes, which helps starve cancer cells by inhibiting the action of a protein called nuclear factor-kappa B. Research shows that resveratrol blocks the action of cancer-causing agents, inhibits tumor growth and development, and causes precancerous cells to return to a normal, healthy state. Resveratrol, which functions as both an antioxidant and an anticoagulant, also shows promise in controlling heart disease, based on the results of cell cultures and animal studies.

Dried mulberries are somewhat crunchy, like figs. They can be eaten as is, providing a refreshing alternative to raisins or other dried berries, or used to make a mulberry candy (grind them in the blender, mix in nut butter, and sweeten to taste). They are especially delicious in yogurt or with granola.

These are awesome, they don't taste exactly like fresh mulberries, but they are very very good. We just eat them as is, and they are good on cereal too. (Posted on 9/20/11)

These are so tasty. I keep them on the kitchen island to snack on. Every time my 2 year old granddaughter comes over she goes right for them. I can't keep her away! (Posted on 4/29/11)

I started eating healthier right after too many kidneys surgeries. I was attracted to raw nuts and fresh vegetables - just healthy foods - when I started eating the mulberries. Like magic, I did not have any other kidney infections. I remember going to the hospital for 3 years, every other month, until last year that I have a major kidney surgery for the third time. I will continue eating mulberries forever. (Posted on 4/22/10)

Having recently read about the health benefits of mulberries, particularly as a low glycemic snack that's great for diabetics like me, I gave these a try. They have a pleasant somewhat chewy texture and a very nice taste that's moderately sweet. These are terrific on their own, mixed into my own 'snack' mix, or used in baking. They were an excellent addition to some rolled oat bars I recently made. (Posted on 4/22/10)
