    Sometimes I think you guys forget what thread this is supposed to be about lmaooo probably why we're just 4 pages away from 800.

    While we're on the topic of being off topic, I discovered earlier today that I spend approximently $150 a month on strawberries. Isn't that crazy?? I find it pretty crazy. Strawberries are my comfort food. I love strawberries.

    10 Health Benefits of Strawberries

     

    1. Helps burn stored fat

    The red coloring contains anthocyanins, which stimulate the burning of stored fat. When a group of animals was fed a high-fat diet along with anthocyanins, they gained 24 percent less weight than the animals eating the high-fat diet without added anthocyanins. (The Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry)

    2. Boost short term memory

    The anthocyanins boost short term memory by 100 percent in eight weeks. (The Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry)

    3. Low in Calories – High in Fiber

    One cup contains only 54 calories.

    4. Ease Inflammation

    Strawberries lower blood levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), a signal of inflammation in the body. In a study, women who ate 16 or more strawberries per week were 14 percent less likely to have elevated levels of CRP. (Harvard School of Public Health.)

    5. Lower cardiovascular disease

    Flavonoids — which are responsible for the colour and flavour of strawberries — lower the risk for heart disease.

    6. Promote bone health

    Strawberries contain potassium, vitamin K and magnesium which are important for bone health.

    7. Prevent oesophageal cancer

    Studies show freeze-dried strawberry powder may help prevent human oesophageal cancer.

    8. Anti-aging properties

    Strawberries are filled with biotin, which helps build strong hair and nails. They also contain the antioxidant ellagic acid, which protects the elastic fibers in our skin to prevent sagging.

    9. Good for weight loss

    The compound nitrate found promotes blood flow and oxygen in our body, which is great for weight loss.

    10. Promote eye health

    Eating three or more servings of fruit like strawberries may lower the risk of macular degeneration, a condition resulting in vision loss. (Archives of Ophthalmology)

     

    And they have benefits for whitening teeth. Go strawberries  :hooker:  xx
