Did you know that strawberries are not true berries? The fleshy and edible part of the fruit is a receptacle ( the thickened part of a stem from which the flower organs grow) and the parts that are sometimes mistakenly called "seeds" are achenes ( a type of simple dry fruit produced by many species of flowering plants). When total antioxidant capacity was measured against a uniform amount of food (100 grams, or about 3.5 ounces), strawberries ranked 27th best among U.S. foods. In addition, when only fruits were considered, strawberries came out 4th among all fruits (behind blackberries, cranberries, and raspberries).
Given their unique combination of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory nutrients, here are the three major areas of health benefits: (1) cardiovascular support and prevention of cardiovascular diseases (2) improved regulation of blood sugar, with decreased risk of type 2 diabetes, and (3) prevention of certain cancer types including breast, cervical, colon, and esophageal cancer.
