My favorite fruit is Raspberries! They are so sweet and have the beautiful dark pink color. I love to eat them all year round. The best is when you get them fresh off the bush. Try planting a raspberry bush in your back yard. You will be able to eat them all year round and not have to worry about the price tag. Not only are they pretty and delicious, they are also a super fruit and here's why:
- high in ellagic acid, a phenolic compound that may help prevent cancer, inhibit the growth of cancer cells and stop the growth of some cancers.
- seed oil has a natural sun protection factor.
- contains high amounts of polyphenolic compounds known for their anti-cancer properties.
- contains strong antioxidants such as Vitamin C, gallic acid and quercetin .
- packed with fiber that helps slow the digestive process so you feel full longer.
- Contains Manganese, a trace mineral that helps keep your metabolic rate high, which burns fat.
