Strawberries

Of course, it is no secret that strawberries are some of the most delicious, popular and healthiest fruits in the world. They are an excellent source of Vitamin C, antioxidants, vitamin B9 (folate) and potassium. They can be consumed ray, fresh or added to smoothies, cookies, ice cream and so on.

Strawberries contain a type of antioxidant known as anthocyanin, which is responsible for their intense color. So, those strawberries that tend to have a brighter red color tend to be rich in this type of antioxidant, which is good for heart health.

According to a recent study, anthocyanins may help reduce the risk of heart disease by lowering LDL (bad) cholesterol levels, while raising the HDL (good) cholesterol levels.
