Anti-Cancer
The combination of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agents found in
strawberries is well-known to fight against the onset of many different
forms of cancer. Thanks to the vitamin C, folate, and the flavonoids
quercetin and kaempferol that they also contain, strawberries are a
delicious defense against potentially cancerous cells.
Healthy Eyes
The Archives of Opthalmology recently published a study in which three
or more servings of strawberries (and other fruits) per day can decrease
the possibility of contracting age-related macular degeneration by over
one-third.
The Vigorous Vitamin C
One cup of strawberries contains an incredible 136% of the RDA of
vitamin C, an effective antioxidant that can help lower blood pressure,
ensure a healthy immune system, and ward off the development of
age-related ocular diseases, such as cataracts and macular degeneration.
Magnificent Manganese
One cup of strawberries contains 21% of manganese, an essential nutrient
that acts as a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent. By
increasing the levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), the enzyme
responsible for protecting mitochonrdria exposed to oxygen, manganese
not only helps to fight the battle against free radicals and oxidative
stress, but also lessens cellular inflammation -- another cause of
numerous cardiovascular diseases.
Bone Health
Manganese is also great for the bones, helping in bone building and maintaining proper bone structure. The potassium, vitamin K, and magnesium in strawberries are also important for bone health
