Time to indulge in some benefits!
Benefits of Gooseberry:
High in Vitamins A and C, Gooseberries have lots of minerals such as Calcium, Iron and Copper.
The berries can reduce the risk of heart disease and promote cancer prevention. Gooseberries also stabilize blood pressure levels.
Benefits of Avocado:
Don’t put away that guacamole in the fridge just yet!
Avocado are stuffed with fiber, contain more Potassium than Bananas, and may help lower cholesterol levels when consumed. The berry (yes, berry) is also quite heart healthy.
In addition, Avocado works to make skin smooth and luxurious!
