It's finally strawberry season again. Check out their health benefits and why we should definitally eat more of them.

Strawberries consist of 90% water, which makes them a light delicacy.

They are rich in :

VITAMIN C, BETA-CAROTENE, VITAMIN B3, POTASSIUM, CALCIUM, MAGNESIUM & ANTIOXIDANTS

Their consumption has hardly any effect on blood sugar levels.

They can improve insulin sensitivity & prevent cardiovascular diseases.

They have a glucose-fructose ratio of around 1:1 (for people with fructose intolerance)

The anthocyanins give this beautiful red color.

Make sure you buy regionally grown & ONLY eat them during their season (otherwise they have a very poor eco balance)

‼️Unfortunately, strawberries are highly contaminated with pesticides.

To use the full health benefits of strawberries- it is therefore essential to buy ORGANIC quality or grow them yourself.
