Inca Berry is a fruit valued since ancient times by the Incas and tribes in South America, and is considered a superfood.
This fruit is distinguished by its unique taste and is high in phosphorus, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin B12, protein and also bioflavonoids. These little golden fruits are often preferred by vegans, vegetarians and people interested in nutrient-rich foods.
Incaberries grow on low-growing plants, and the yellow fruits are surrounded by paper-thin leaves. The fruit is green at the beginning of growth, gradually turning to its characteristic golden color over time. These interesting fruits, which grow in the tropical regions of South America, are most often found in the higher parts of the mountain ranges.
