[FEATURE] Does it work? Eating strawberries |
Thea Jourdan finds a few more good reasons to eat those tasty red berries
Traditionally, strawberries, which contain more vitamin C than the
equivalent weight of oranges, have been used to cleanse the digestive
system. They also contain a range of phytonutrients, with many
health-boosting effects. "Strawberries can legitimately claim to be
heart protective, anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory, all rolled into
one," says dietician Nigel Denby. "They rank as one of the world's
healthiest foods."
...
Folic acid, or folate, is one of the few vitamins known to prevent
neural-tube birth defects, such as spina bifida, which affects one in
every 1,500 babies in the UK. It is an essential component of spinal
fluid, and helps to produce red blood cells and the mood-lifting
hormone serotonin. Just eight strawberries a day contain a fifth of an
adult woman's daily folate requirement.

Does this mean I can't eat as many strawberries as I like? But it's
Wimbledon next week!

just be what I feel like saying right now, okay?

You know you're getting old when the tennis stars look so young.
