If you click on the health benefits for raspberry, it mentions,

Raspberries like blueberries are very high in antioxidants.
Raspberries contain Ellagic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Quercetin and Catechins.

Ellagic Acid: A phenolic compound that is a potent anticarcinogenic / anti-mutagenic compound. Ellagic Acid acts as a scavenger to bind the cancer causing chemicals, inhibiting mutation. It also assists in preventing carcinogens binding to DNA, reducing the incidence of cancer. Ellagic Acid also has anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties which assist with the control of most stomach complaints.
Quercetin & Reduces the risk of allergies.
Catechins & Assists in the prevention of cancer.
Salicylic Acid & Protects against heart disease similar to aspirin

Once again Kaz, thanks for the info.
