Health benefits of blackberries. 1  As in other kinds of bush berries, blackberries too packed with many plant nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and dietary fibers that are essential for optimum health. 2  The berries are very low in calories. 100 g provide just 43 calories. Nonetheless, they are rich in soluble and insoluble fiber (100 g whole berries consist of 5.3 g or 14% RDA of fiber). Xylitol is a low-calorie sugar substitute existing in the fiber content.
Chewing gum contains a sugar alcohol called xylitol. Regular chewing gums contain this, and sugar-free gums are almost 70% xylitol, because it is an artificial sweetener. Many candies use xylitol in their ingredients as well. When xylitol is consumed by humans, there are no effects. When ingested by dogs, it causes a surge of insulin that drops a dog's blood sugar to dangerous levels. If your dog has ingested a large amount of gum, the xylitol could start to damage their liver. This is, essentially, like going into a diabetic coma.
