Gaultheria Berries as Potential Functional Foods: Phytochemical Composition, Health-Promoting Properties, and Nutritional Potential. (PubMed, Nutrients) - Sep 27, 2026 - "Current evidence suggests that Gaultheria berries represent underutilised sources of structurally diverse bioactive compounds that warrant further investigation as potential food and nutraceutical ingredients. However, their health-promoting effects in humans remain unestablished. Future research should prioritise comprehensive metabolomic profiling, standardisation of phytochemical composition, bioavailability and safety assessment, in vivo validation, and controlled human studies before specific health benefits or therapeutic applications can be substantiated."
