HEALTH BENEFITS:
Berries get their color from anthocyanins, which are antioxidants believed to have properties that support the immune system and prevent chronic disease.
Raw peanut butter free of refined sugar, added oils or trans fats are high in monounsaturated fats. Some of this fat being oleic acid, also found in olive oil, shown to have many health benefits.
