The heart and brain are two vital organs of the human body and taking good care of them is very important.
One of the fruits that can help in doing so is strawberry. It contains vitamin C which is a relevant antioxidant molecule in the brain. It can boost blood antioxidant levels that may help reduce the risk of chronic ailments like heart disease. Also, proper intake of this vitamin, whether from food or supplements, has been shown to have a positive effect on thinking and memory as you age.
Make sure to get your daily vitamin C dose. Get 59 milligrams (mg) of it in every 100 grams of strawberries. One cup of strawberry halves, on the other hand, provides 89mg of vitamin C.
