Standard, well-documented food — figures reflect typical USDA-reported values
Prep Tip
Wash just before eating, not before storing — moisture speeds up mold growth and nutrient loss.
Absorption Boost
Healthy fats (yogurt, nut butter) — helps the body retain fat-soluble antioxidants longer
Black pepper — an unusual but effective pairing for enhancing antioxidant absorption
Use Caution If
You have an oral allergy syndrome related to birch pollen — strawberries can cross-react
You take blood thinners — very high intake adds a small amount of vitamin K
Storage
Refrigerate unwashed in a single layer; use within 3–5 days, as they're highly perishable.
