A cup of strawberries a day for health.This little red-heart shaped fruit really packs in the nutrional punch! Strawberries are naturally fat, sodium, and cholesterol-free. Also high in vitamin C, folate and potassium which helps the body metabolize protein. Just 8 strawberries a day provide 20% of the folic acid your body needs on a daily basis. Those same 8 strawberries a day may reduce the trist of some cancers, heart disease as well as improve memory. Strawberries are also naturally low in sugar.
