Nutrition
The strawberry is packed full of nutrients. In 100g of strawberries (about ten), there are just 32 calories, zero fat, zero cholesterol, 2g dietary fibre, 5g sugars, and 1g protein. Because strawberries are low in saturated fat, sodium and cholesterol, it means you can eat loads of them without running a high risk of weight gain. They also contain vitamin C, calcium, manganese and folate.
Vitamin C is found in most fruits and vegetables, and is brilliant for improving a whole host of bodily functions, including maintaining healthy cells, boosting collagen levels (to keep your skin looking plump and youthful), improving wound-healing, and assisting in the absorption of iron from leafy sources such as kale and sprouts.
Calcium, as many of us will know, is a mineral which is really important for maintaining strong and healthy bones. Strawberries are a source not many people think of when looking for a calcium boost, but they make slightly more interesting eating than Greek yoghurt!
