Raspberries

Raspberries are a popular berry with rich color and sweet juicy taste. They are a good source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Raspberries can range in color from the popular red and black varieties to purple, yellow, or golden. Each color of berry has a unique composition of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

The fiber and water content in raspberries can help prevent constipation and maintain a healthy digestive tract. Adequate fiber promotes the regularity of bowel movements, which is crucial for the daily excretion of toxins.

One cup of raspberries has a whopping 8 grams of fiber, about one-third of your daily value. Raspberries are deliciously eaten fresh but are just as nutritious purchased frozen and thrown into a smoothie. Or add them to yogurt, oatmeal or high-fiber cereal.
