Description
Blackberries are sweet darkly colored fruits that grow on bushy vines in small clusters known as drupelets. Blackberry leaves come from the blackberry plant. The leaves alternate along the stem with each group of leaves consisting of 3–5 leaflets. The leaves are prickly and bright green, and are toothed along the edges. Blackberry leaves are a byproduct of berry cultivation, and though many focus on the berry itself, blackberry leaves can be used in many ways too. The leaves are rich in tannin and have antibacterial properties. They have been used medicinally since at least the time of the ancient Greeks. Blackberry leaves have high levels of tannins and vitamin C, and they are made into a tea that has proved beneficial as a remedy for diarrhea, a gargle for throat inflammations and a compress for wounds and rashes. The tea also helps regulate both heavy and light menstrual flow and is a gastrointestinal soother. It's a tea you can drink daily-it has no side effects.
