The Health Benefits Of Raspberries.

Hey guys.

In my last post, I gave my little thought about procrastination and how I've come to understand it since joining steemit.

Today let's talk fruit.

Raspberries....

Raspberries are rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber, raspberries are a delicious fruit with many health benefits.

They have a high concentration of ellagic acid, a phenolic compound that prevents cancer, thereby stopping the growth of cancer cells and eliminating the progress of cancers.

The oil from raspberries has a sun protection factor. Furthermore, it helps to lose weight and also has anti-aging properties.

By improving your immune system, these berries actually look after your overall health. These are easy to include in your diet. Either you include them in some recipes, eat them raw, or add the chilled raspberries to your drinks; all the forms tantalize your taste buds and provide nutrition at the same time.

The taste of these fruits is sweet and has a subtly sharp tinge. Raspberries easily melt in your mouth because of their soft and sweet texture.

They come in a range of colors like pink, purple, black, yellow, orange, and white. They have two hybrids, namely loganberries and boysenberries. Most varieties are cultivated in California from June till October.

They contain noteworthy amounts of polyphenolic antioxidants like anthocyanin pigments that are associated with optimal health. These berries also have a high proportion of dietary fiber.

They are one of the plant foods with the highest ranking fiber content. Of all contents, the fiber comprises around 20% of the berry’s total weight.

Raspberries are excellent sources of vitamin C, manganese, and dietary fiber. They are also rich in B vitamins, folic acid, copper, and iron.

They have the highest concentration of antioxidant strength amongst all fruits. This is due to its high concentration of ellagic acid, anthocyanins, gallic acid, quercetin, cyanidin, catechins, pelargonidin, kaempferol and salicylic acid.

However, yellow raspberries and other pale-colored fruits have a much lower percentage of anthocyanins. Thus, raspberries can be considered as one of the best natural treatments for cancers.
