A trip to the supermarket will show you that there are great variety of fruits. Berries are especially wonderful not only because they come in enticing colours and are enjoyable with other fruits, nuts or yogurt. But most of all, berries can be enjoyed just by itself, particularly everyone’s favourite, the strawberry.
As common and everyday as the banana – but what most people probably know about this sexy, succulent fruit won’t be enough to fill a cocoa mug.
First off, strawberries owe its bright red colour to it’s antioxidant properties. As you know, antioxidants fight and repair cell damage brought about by free radicals and toxins. And second, strawberries are an excellent of source of vitamin C – being that a cupful of strawberries have more vitamin C than the same amount of oranges. Recently too, the Harvard School of medicine conducted a research and discovered that folks who consume more strawberries are less likely to have heart related problems. Big things come in small packages indeed and it just so happens that the strawberry is one adorable, sweet smelling package as well. Kudos to the strawberry!
