Others are happy to pick them up in the produce section of their favorite grocery store. Either way you pick them, that luscious red fruit is full of nutrients and is considered a super food.<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px; font-size: 0.81em; line-height: 1.5em; padding: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em 0px;\">Super foods are those that provide health benefits which go beyond providing basic good nutrition. These foods may reduce risk for cancer or heart disease. They can enhance overall health, strengthen our bodies and possibly even slow down the aging process.<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px; font-size: 0.81em; line-height: 1.5em; padding: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em 0px;\">Super foods are nutrient dense in that they provide extra nutrition for fewer calories. Some are also high in omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, vitamins and minerals, but low in saturated fats, trans fats or refined sugars. They also may contain phytochemicals, colorful plant pigments, that can be helpful in preventing disease.<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px; font-size: 0.81em; line-height: 1.5em; padding: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em 0px;\">Many foods including oatmeal, salmon, beans, nuts, kale, avocados and sweet potatoes are also regarded as super foods, so it&#8217;s important to eat a variety of colorful foods daily.<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px; font-size: 0.81em; line-height: 1.5em; padding: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em 0px;\">&#8220;But berries are some of the most powerful super foods,&#8221; according to Reza Rafie, a horticulture specialist at Virginia State University.<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px; font-size: 0.81em; line-height: 1.5em; padding: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em 0px;\">Rafie, his staff and students are involved in research to extend the growing season for berries, including strawberries. Through the use of protective shelters called high tunnels, they protect crops from pests, diseases and extreme temperatures, extending their growing season.<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px; font-size: 0.81em; line-height: 1.5em; padding: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em 0px;\">&#8220;More people are interested in fresh produce over processed or frozen fruits,&#8221; Rafie said. &#8220;Consumers are willing to pay a higher price for fresh produce. The longer growing season is a win-win situation for growers and consumer alike.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px; font-size: 0.81em; line-height: 1.5em; padding: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em 0px;\">We enjoy the fruit; the small farmer earns profits, which in turn helps the economy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px; font-size: 0.81em; line-height: 1.5em; padding: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em 0px;\">The United States is the largest strawberry grower in the world, with most being grown in California. Florida and Oregon are big growers as well. Rafie reminds us that super foods are best when they&#8217;re fresh. &#8220;If they have to travel a long way, they&#8217;re still good, but they&#8217;re higher in nutrients if they&#8217;re local.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px; font-size: 0.81em; line-height: 1.5em; padding: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em 0px;\">That&#8217;s another reason to head out to Virginia&#8217;s local berry farms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px; font-size: 0.81em; line-height: 1.5em; padding: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em 0px;\">Enjoy your super berries, but don&#8217;t limit them to dessert. My family&#8217;s favorite treat is still &#8220;Pink Drinks.&#8221; Just toss 1 percent milk, crushed ice, a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a bit of Splenda, and a bunch of strawberries in the blender for a yummy smoothie.<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px; font-size: 0.81em; line-height: 1.5em; padding: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em 0px;\">Try the Strawberry and Spinach Salad recipe as a way to make strawberries and other super foods part of your main meal.
