Final Recommendations and Takeaway:
1. We believe blackberries are one or maybe the best fruit to incorporate in your diet. Relative to other fruits, they have a lower sugar content, which does not increase glucose/insulin to high levels. The dietary fiber outnumbers the sugar levels, which is a promising nutritional story.

2. We are all recommended to include a minimum of four servings of fruits to our diet. We believe that blackberries, due to its nutritional integrity, should be included as one of those servings regularly. 

3. Again, over consumption of anything is not good. To help optimize your health, we strongly recommend eating fruits. But there are a lot of fruits with high sugar contents, which although are natural, can pose complications.  Therefore, if you are looking for a high concentration of benefits with low sugar levels, blackberries are your best option.
