This study investigated the comparative nutritional and phytochemical profiles of exotic berry species like strawberries, blueberry, and local ones such as phalsa, and rasbhari. The study included qualitative and quantitative analyses of sugars, proteins, vitamin C, phytochemicals, and protein profiling using SDS-PAGE. All four berries exhibited a rich array of nutrients, including significant levels of sugars, proteins, and vitamin C. Phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of flavonoids, terpenoids, glycosides, and saponins in all the berries. Strawberry and phalsa demonstrated high levels of vitamin C (0.102 mg mL and 0.208 mg mL), while phalsa exhibited the highest protein content (6 mg mL). All berries exhibited strong antioxidant activity. Protein profiling using SDS-PAGE revealed distinct protein band patterns for each species, suggesting unique protein compositions. These findings suggest that these berries possess valuable nutritional and functional properties, and their incorporation into a balanced diet may contribute to improved human health. Further research is warranted to investigate the bioavailability and potential health benefits of the identified bioactive compounds in humans.
