We all know berries are healthy, but do you know why? Blueberries, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries are all coming into season. These tiny fruits pack a huge health punch! Loaded with antioxidants (think cancer fighting), low glycemic (think good for blood sugar) and aiding cognitive function (think, well just think!) these pretty colored fruits help you avoid a myriad of health conditions.

In addition to fighting cancer, gently supporting blood sugar and helping your brain, these little gems also have fiber - raspberries and blackberries having the highest. In short, fiber is super important in your daily diet. Fiber slows down your system for better nutrient absorption, helps keep your colon healthy (who doesn’t want that?!), aids in fighting cancer and fills you up so you eat less calories.

Berries also help fight inflammation. This is so important for avoiding many diseases/conditions such as type II diabetes, heart disease, obesity, arthritis, eczema, migraines.

So, eat your berries and get your health on!

In good health,
