About Golden berries

Golden berries, also known as Physalis or Cape Gooseberries, are small, vibrant orange fruits encased in a papery husk. Native to South America, particularly Peru and Colombia, these tangy-sweet berries are a staple in traditional Andean cuisine and are now enjoyed worldwide. Packed with nutrients, golden berries are a rich source of vitamin C, vitamin A, and antioxidants like polyphenols and carotenoids, which support immune health and fight oxidative stress. They are also high in dietary fiber, promoting healthy digestion, and contain modest amounts of protein and iron. With low calorie and fat content, golden berries are an excellent addition to a balanced diet. However, they should be consumed in moderation, as overeating may irritate the digestive system or cause mild gastrointestinal discomfort. Whether eaten fresh, dried, or incorporated into salads, snacks, and desserts, golden berries are a flavorful and nutritious treat.
