Healthy, because
The tangy-sweet combination of whole wheat flour, blackberries, and ginger is a great combination for the stomach and intestines. Whole wheat flour and berries provide a dose of intestine-healthy fiber and ginger is considered an old household remedy for various digestive problems.
