СURRANT

The red currant from “Golden Berry” is not just a berry but a true source of health and longevity.

       Its healing properties have been valued since the 16th century when herbalists began using it to improve well-being. The high pectin content in red currants is recommended for removing sludge and toxins from the body, as well as for treating gastrointestinal disorders.

       Red currants have found their place in many culinary dishes. They are preserved, frozen, and used to make various desserts, jams, soups, salads, sauces, and beverages. They are a versatile ingredient that adds vibrant flavors to any dish.

Chemical Composition

       Red currants contain vitamins (P, C, A), pectins, and tannins, as well as 10% sugar and nearly 4% various acids. Despite all these benefits, their vitamin C content does indeed fall short of that of black currants. However, the red berries have a higher content of iron and potassium, which positively affects the heart and helps remove excess moisture from the body.

       Red currants are also rich in coumarins, which help reduce blood clotting. Their anti-cancer and pain-relieving properties make the berries even more valuable for health.

Beneficial and Healing Properties

       The fruits of red currants improve intestinal function and activate the removal of excess salts. They are an excellent anti-inflammatory agent as well as a hemostatic, choleretic, and fever-reducing remedy. Thanks to the pectins, black currants actively help cleanse the body of cholesterol.

       The berries increase appetite and improve the absorption of animal protein, and they are used as a laxative in cases of allergy. Frozen berries retain their beneficial properties for a long time, making them available throughout the year.

       The juice from red currants has general strengthening, refreshing, and fever-reducing properties. It easily quenches thirst in hot weather and can help relieve nausea and improve gastrointestinal function. Currant juice is an excellent anti-inflammatory, laxative, hemostatic, and choleretic agent.

       The juice is recommended for spasm and colic, as it helps remove excess salts, thus preventing stone formation.
