Abstract

This article presents a comprehensive review of the medicinal properties of the blackberry (Rubus spp.) plant, synthesizing data from ethnobotanical traditions and contemporary phytopharmacological research. The plant's fruit, leaves, roots, and seeds have long been utilized in folk medicine, particularly for treating gastrointestinal ailments, respiratory infections, dermatological conditions, and systemic inflammation. Recent studies confirm that blackberries are a rich source of anthocyanins, flavonoids, tannins, vitamins, and other bioactive compounds with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antidiabetic, and anticancer properties.
