Strawberries are a very nutritious, healthy, and tasty food. They are one of the favorite fruits for many and can be used in various ways. Strawberries have many properties.
They provide very few calories despite being a very tasty and nutritious food. They are one of the great fruits of spring, so we should make the most of their season. The flavor of strawberries perfectly combines with many other foods, both dairy and fruits, as well as savory dishes. They can even be used to make masks that benefit your skin.
We are talking about a food that has many beneficial properties for health, as they contain a high amount of vitamins (C and E) and minerals (potassium, magnesium, and calcium). That is why strawberries are recommended for problems of fluid retention (as they are diuretic), intestinal transit (laxative power), have anti-inflammatory and anticoagulant properties, and help keep the skin, eyes, teeth, and bones in good condition. Moreover, they contain a lot of salicylic acid, the main component of aspirin.
Their external use is also beneficial for health: they can be used as a natural toothpaste and help keep the mouth clean and prevent tartar formation. They also keep cavities at bay thanks to strawberries.
