3. Strawberries

Noticing a pattern yet? Experts recommend eating berries (or berry-named fruits, since some are mislabeled) because of their high levels of vitamins, dietary fiber, and a wide variety of bioactive compounds that benefit the body. Research shows that strawberries, in particular, have a positive effect on inflammation, blood pressure, blood lipid profiles, and insulin sensitivity.

Nevertheless, the nutrients they contain suggest strawberries may be useful in fighting several chronic diseases, including heart disease.
