RIch in fiber and cancer-fighting-antioxidants such as vitamin C, strawberries "also contain blood pressure-regulating potassium and are a good source of folate, which helps your body produce and maintain new cells," says Dawn Jackson Blatner, R.D., a FITNESS advisory member.
BUY: Look for berries that are firm and bright red in color with fresh green caps.
STORE: Place a single layer of unwashed berries on a paper towel in a moisture-proof container. Refrigerated, they'll stay fresh for two to three days.
