Supercharge your health with strawberries

With just 50 calories and 3 grams of fiber in a whole cup, strawberries help your heart by shaving down levels of C-reactive protein, an indicator of heart-hampering inflammation. And their vitamin C will boost your oatmeal’s heart-helping powers.

Strawberries — like most other berries — are high in flavonoids, plant compounds that help shield cells from molecular damage, reducing the risk of needless brain aging.
