Strawberries grow in bushes and are harvested 3-4 weeks after they blossom.
They are seasonal fruits and can be found in different shapes and varieties.

They are three types of strawberries :

  • June-bearing strawberry
  • Everbearing strawberry
  • Day-neutral strawberry variety
  • Strawberries have a sweet, red color and juicy texture. They are rich with vitamins and minerals, folate, potassium, manganese and magnesium making them a very healthy food.

    You should also have on mind that they have few calories. A cup of strawberries contains only 49 calories meaning you can almost eat as much as you want :)

    They can be eaten fresh or added to fruit salads, cookies or homemade ice-cream. There are many possibilities with strawberries so it's all up to you and your imagination.

    Also, you can use strawberry as a beauty hack. My favorite trick is strawberry teeth whitening. It's true, strawberries can help you whiten your teeths. All you need to do is rub a big, fresh strawberry on your teeths and rinse.

    If that wasn't enough strawberries have the following health benefits:

    • It improves your heart function
    • Skin care effect
    • Anti-aging
    • Eye care
    • Reduces high blood pressure
    • Prevents cancer
    • Boosts immunity
    • Weight loss
