Many believe that most fruits do not contribute to body weight increase, but Russian doctors and specialists have revealed that consuming large amounts of berries may lead to weight gain, especially in individuals with a genetic predisposition to weight gain compared to others. Doctors advise those who struggle with excess weight or are prone to gaining weight to be particularly cautious about the quantity of berries they consume, as they contain high-calorie content contrary to popular belief.
Berries are generally a good source of vitamins and minerals, like most types of fruit, and can be safely consumed without restrictions if there is no excess weight or susceptibility to weight gain.
Previous studies indicated the opposite, asserting that berries help with weight loss; however, nutritionists currently refute this belief for those with a tendency to gain weight.
