Wild berry plants, which are abundant in the high- mountain and mid-mountain landscapes of the Issyk-Kul region of Kyrgyzstan, can be used to provide the population with vitamins in the amount necessary for physiological needs all year round. Among the three species we selected for the study (viburnum, barberry and rose hips), barberry is the richest in β-carotene content in winter. In terms of vitamin E, all three species are close to asparagus, and in terms of vitamins B1, B2 and calcium content, rose hips significantly exceed the other two species. In the prickly rose (Rosa acicularis Lindl), the greatest amount of vitamin C is found in the pulp of the hypanthium of fully ripened fruits of plants growing in the eastern part compared to plants from the western, northern and southern parts of the Issyk-Kul valley.
