Thanksgiving is just a day away -- do you have your list of thankfuls ready? Better get a handle on what you're thankful for before Grandma asks you to share at the table of turkey. If you're coming up short, here's a suggestion: Give thanks for cranberries, says the FitSugar crew.

• Just one cup of raw cranberries boast one-fourth of the RDI (Reference Daily Intake) of vitamin C for an adult. Many juices have extra vitamin C added, resulting in the full daily requirement.
• Cranberry juice -- gotta love it. It interferes with the bacteria E. coli (the stuff responsible for the most serious types of urinary tract infections). It also has a high-acid content and can help prevent kidney stones. It contains lots of vitamins and nutrients too.
  
• Cranberries contain an antioxidant that prevents plaque on the teeth.
• Cranberries taste like candy, we told you back in September. They're a whole lot healthier, though. Read more here.

When asked what thanks you are offering this Thanksgiving, consider giving cranberries some love. Fill your glass with some berry juice too and make a healthy toast to the holiday season. And don't worry about enjoying a second helping of that cranberry relish -- check out this RealAge article and find out why.
