Health benefits of strawberries

Things to Be Aware Of

Despite the high number of health benefits strawberries can have, there are a few things to be aware of.
First of all, like many fruits, they do have a high sugar content which can be unhealthy if consumed in excess. As long as you maintain a healthy, balanced diet and ensure you practise good oral care, however, you should be perfectly fine to eat as many strawberries as you like.
They are also a favourite of pests, and so are often covered in pesticides. Where possible, buy organic, and failing that, ensure that you wash them thoroughly before eating in order to avoid ingestion of unhealthy chemicals.
