Summer and Strawberries go together. They're flavour packed, excellent in smoothies, and we love them even more for the following reasons.
Strawberries are:
☆ An excellent source of vitamin C;
☆ Rich in antioxidants (Anthocyanins - phytonutrients) and vitamins including Manganese, Folate and Potassium;
☆ Sodium free, fat free, and cholesterol free;
☆ High in dietary fibre;
☆ A delicious way to increase energy quickly; and make an excellent choice for a pre-workout snack. If you add a healthy fat source such as peanut butter or yoghurt you have a supercharged snack.
