BERRY BENEFITS
Nothing says early summer quite like berries. With
warmer days ahead, farmers' markets and grocery stores
begin to fi ll with strawberries, blueberries, raspberries,
and blackberries. Their bright color and fresh fl avor
make them an easy addition to your breakfast, snacks,
and desserts.
Berries o er more than sweetness. They are packed with
nutrients that support overall wellness. Strawberries
are a great source of vitamin C, which helps support
the immune system and healthy skin. Blueberries are
known for their antioxidants, which help protect cells
from everyday stress. Raspberries and blackberries are
especially rich in fi ber, which can support digestive
health and help you feel satisfi ed.
One of the best things about berries is how easy
they are to enjoy. Add them to yogurt, oatmeal, or
smoothies, or keep them simple and enjoy a handful
on their own. Fresh berries are a delicious seasonal
choice, and frozen berries are a convenient option that
still o ers plenty of nutrition.
Adding more berries to your routine is a simple way
to bring color, fl avor, and nourishment to your plate
