Berries are the healthiest food you can eat

berries are the healthies food you can eatSummer produces a bounty of berries that look good, taste good and, best of all, are good for you. Of all of the berries to choose from, “Wild Blueberries are especially healthful,” writes Amelia R. Farquhar of Cooking Light Magazine in the May 2005 issue. Noting that berries are among the healthiest foods you can eat, Farquhar cites research linking berries’ potential disease-fighting properties to their high concentration of antioxidants, which combat the free-radical damage that can lead to cancer, heart disease and aging. Wild Blueberries are particularly healthful, she says, because “they have the highest skin-to-flesh ratio of any fruit, and the disease-fighting compounds (anthocyanins) that give them their vibrant color are in the skin.”
