According to new research by the American Academy of
Neurology, eating bearing regularly might help reduce your risk for developing
Parkinson’s disease. Berries contain
anthocyanins – flavonoids and antioxidants that are found in berries.
Berries are nutritious and low in calories. They are great
sources of vitamin C and fiber.
Strawberries in particular add calcium, magnesium, folate, and potassium
to the mix.
Can’t find fresh berries at your local grocer? Next time opt for frozen berries. They are picked then frozen immediately so
they retain all their nutritious benefits.
Just be sure to find berries without any added sugar or syrup.
Enjoying Your Berries:
Top a bowl of berries with a dollop of non-fat plain Greek
yogurt or light whipped topping and a sprinkle of chopped nuts (almonds,
walnuts, pecans)
Add berries to your favorite cereal or oatmeal
Sprinkle berries on a salad
Combine frozen berries with low fat milk or soy milk to make
a smoothie
