You may think the same part, like this fruit is almost useful in every problem, so there must be some problems or maybe very high risk like eat a lot of berries and you die from choking or maybe you get a memory problem or some other big problem. But luckily “NO”. Till now, very less side effects had been reported till now.

Yea but it do have some problems like swelling, headache, dizziness. The Problem it causes is that eating a lot of Berries will lead to thinning of blood leading to high blood pressure and if you get a wound, the chances are you will lose a lot of blood before even treating it
