Randomized controlled crossover trial assessed boysenberry's influence on energy metabolism in adults, suggesting effects on fat oxidation.

No significant changes in postprandial energy expenditure were found, indicating limited impact on energy metabolism.
Participants experienced a notable increase in postprandial fat oxidation after consuming boysenberry juice daily for four weeks.
The trial employed a randomized controlled crossover design with 19 healthy adult participants after withdrawals.
These findings call for additional research into the effects of boysenberry on substrate utilization, particularly regarding fat oxidation.

Furuuchi et al. (2025) studied this question.
