Raspberries

Raspberries are tart and soft berries that are usually added to desserts. They are rich in antioxidants, manganese, vitamin C, and dietary fiber. On average, 100 grams of this fruit contains around 4 mmol of antioxidants. Some studies have suggested a link between raspberry consumption and reduced risks of heart disease and cancer. More specifically, antioxidants may eliminate up to 90 percent of cancer cells in the breast, colon, and stomach. Anthocyanins are a special form of antioxidants in raspberries that helps reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, thus lowering the risk of developing heart disease. [2]
