Fruit drink
The useful properties of berries have been known to mankind since time immemorial. Ancient people, along with hunting and fishing, began to engage in gathering. In the forests, our ancestors found mushrooms and forest berries that they ate. Around the same time, people began to harvest forest berries for the winter using drying.
Much later, they began to cook jam or jam from berries, roll up compotes, and freeze. Doctors do not unreasonably argue that the juice of forest berries is incredibly useful for our body. True, in order to get a liter of natural juice, you need to collect a decent amount of forest berries.
In addition, the juice from natural berries tastes very sour. For everyone to like the product, you will have to dilute it with water or add sugar, which changes the original healthy vitamin-mineral composition. You can find juices from forest berries on store shelves. However, it is not likely that this product contains at least 10% real juice.
Our ancestors also found a solution to this problem. The Slavs began to make morse from forest berries, to which natural honey was added for sweetness. Morse is a cool drink that can be made from berries, fruits and even vegetables. The most useful are fruit drinks made from wild lingonberries or cranberries.
The Benefits of Morse
It is believed that the main benefit of morsus for the human body consists in the vitamin-mineral composition of the components of this non-carbonated drink. The calorie content of the morsa is low, so this drink can often be drunk in hot weather. Morse will quench thirst and refresh, saturate the body with vitamins and will not add a kilogram to the figure, as sweet soda does.
In folk medicine, morse is not used in chilled form, then a sweet-sour drink will help strengthen the immune system. Vitamins of group B, E, PP, A, folic acid and vitamin C, as well as an increased content of potassium, calcium, iron and phosphorus in the chemical composition, perhaps here is the main benefit of morsus for the human body. It is worth paying attention to the fact that morse can be easily prepared at home.
We think that many can purchase or independently collect lingonberries in the forest, from which morse or cranberries that strengthen health, which helps with colds, are obtained. Blackberry morsels or blueberries will help those suffering from digestive problems.
What is distinctive, when preparing fruit drinks based on several types of berries, only the energy value increases, and not the calorie content of fruit drinks. True, you should not add a large amount of sugar to the drink, it is better to use honey.
