Eat lots of those fresh berries

Categories: Alternative & Green Health, Nutrition & Supplements

Are you a berry fan? Blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, etc. -- there are just a ton of different berries for every taste it seems. I use them in smoothies and breakfast cereals as well as eating them raw. There's quite possibly no better nutrition than fresh berries in my opinion.

It seems like there is a study or new research every so often that links berries to the prevention of cancer, and herbalists and nutritionists will be quick to tell you that the most potent form of cancer fighting there is can be found in fresh berries, not radioactive chemotherapy.

The most recent studies (yes, two of them) concluded that eating berries may make gastrointestinal cancers less likely., two new studies show. Although the tests are always conducted on mice (not people), the validity still reigns on in my mind strongly. How about you -- are you a "berry" fan?
