Strawberries are high in antioxidants. Research at the USDA 's Agricultural Research Service at Lane, suggests that the high antioxidant levels in strawberries can help neutralize the destructive effects of free radicals and helping the body to repair its tissues by giving you an added boost of vitamin C. A serving of strawberries provides 210 mg of potassium, a mineral that helps regulate electrolytes in the body, reducing the risk of heart attack and stroke. Strawberries are also rich in folic acid (possible protective factor in the onset of Alzheimer's disease.), vitamins (B2, B5, B6 and vitamin K), minerals (copper and magnesium) and omega fatty acids. All of this with only 45 calories. And not only that, but the fiber in strawberries, about 12% of your RDA per serving, helps your body absorb nutrients, inhibits the production of cholesterol in your liver, and helps stabilize your blood glucose. To get the best benefits would be better to consume raw strawberries and eaten within four days of purchase. In conclusion, the strawberries are tasty but also a way to start healthy eating because they are free of saturated fats, cholesterol, and sodium, naturally sweet, and low in calories. N05/000037
