⚖️ Caution

A whole food and very gentle; very large amounts of concentrated extracts may mildly affect blood sugar or blood thinning, though the fruit itself is safe for most.

🍃 A note from nature

God tucked a whole cluster of tiny blue jewels onto one small bush, as if He wanted sweetness to come in handfuls, not just single bites.
