The Golden Tree. Better Than Blackberry, More Antioxidant Than Red Wine. But Is It Banned?

The Golden Tree. Better Than Blackberry, More Antioxidant Than Red Wine. But Is It Banned?
Why is a tree that produces fruit sweeter than blackberries and holds more antioxidants than red wine considered "illegal" in some major US cities?
In this episode of Ancestral Soil, we investigate the Mulberry (Morus)—the "Golden Tree" that once powered the Silk Road and was guarded by Emperors. Today, however, it is often treated as a fugitive, banned by city ordinances in places like El Paso and Las Vegas.
We uncover the historical blunder of King James I that accidentally created a legacy of flavor, and we dive deep into the biochemistry that makes this fruit a medical powerhouse. From Resveratrol levels that rival fine wine to leaves containing DNJ for blood sugar regulation, the Mulberry is a pharmacy disguised as a nuisance.
Stop buying tart, expensive blackberries. Discover why the "messy" tree is actually the ultimate symbol of abundance and how you can grow the "King's Fruit" right in your backyard.
