Our Verdict

When comparing gooseberries to raspberries, we picked the raspberries.

Why?

Like most (non-poisonous) berries, both are great! But…

In terms of macros, raspberries have more fiber for approximately the same carbs and protein, winning in this category.

In the category of vitamins, gooseberries have more of vitamins A, B1, and B6, while raspberries have more of vitamins B2, B3, B5, B7, B9, and E, winning this round, too.

Looking at minerals, gooseberries have more potassium and selenium, while raspberries have more copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, and zinc, winning a third round.

In other considerations, both are good sources of polyphenols, but raspberries have more, especially quercetin of various kinds.

Adding up the sections makes for a clear overall win for raspberries, but by all means enjoy either or both, as diversity is good!
