What are some benefits of eating Cherries?
Hi Loves Happy Summer !
Hope you are all doing amazing and enjoying the summer vibes. I know it has been very hot in most areas of the country with record heat waves.
With summer heat also comes some of the best fruit and vegetables that are in season for only short amount of time. I love to eat what is in season and summer is one of my favorite times of the year.
Right now cherries are in season and they re one of my favorite fruits to eat. They are ranked one of the most healthiest fruit and also ranked alone of the most health protective foods overall. The many great benefit cherries are full of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds, are low in glycemic index so won’t trigger spikes and can be protective against diabetes and important for managing the condition if you already have it. Cherries are one of the few foods with melatonin so having eight ounces of cherry juice in the morning and then again a few hours before bed can increase sleep time. They are also helpful with arthritis and gout attacks , lowering cholesterol and helping reduce post exercise pain.
When cherries are outta season enjoy them frozen ,freeze dried powders, 100% tart cherry juice, and preservative-free dried cherries to still get all these great benefits all year long.
I hope you go out and grab yourself a bag fresh cherries I know they can by kinda pricey but they are so worth!
Enjoy the rest of summer and all the plentiful fresh fruits and vegetables! As always reach out if you want learn about the benefits of other healthy foods to eat @ WWW.KeyahHolisticHealth.com we have some great coaching packages available customized for each client!
