Did you know that Cranberries contain one of the highest concentrations of antioxidants of any fruit? It's also one of the few fruits native to North America. ❤ . . Cranberries are rich in many different nutrients including: vitamins C, E, & K, manganese, B6, B5 and potassium. Some of the powerful antioxidants found within cranberries include anthocyanins, bezioic acid, epicatechins and quercetin.☀ . . Quercetin is a type of flavonoid that is considered as possibly one of the most powerful phytonutrients found in fruit as it has been found to reliably boost multiple antioxidant defenses within the body and reduce inflammation.🧠 . One study published in the Journal of Behavioral Brain Research found that quercetin protected the brain from toxicity caused by sugar by boosting the activity of the antioxidant superoxide dismutase — one of the most powerful natural antioxidants within our body.📚 . Another study published in Karger, a journal dedicated to research in medical science, found that quercetin reversed cognitive deficits caused by LPS (lipopolysaccharides), a toxin produced by the bacteria in our gut.📚 . . @brain.food.daily _______________ #cranberry #cranberries #cranberryjuice #cranberryfacts

Bitter Melon

Bitter melon is one of the best bitter foods you can have. This melon is very popular among the Asian, Caribbean and African countries. Its most recognizable feature is the bitter taste, but once you hear the many health benefits, the taste won’t matter. It can prevent cancer, regulate the sugar levels in your blood, fight inflammation and more.

Arugula

This leafy vegetable might not have the sweetest taste, but it sure is amazing for your health. It belongs to the same group with broccoli, cauliflower, and other cruciferous vegetables. Arugula will significantly help in detoxing your body, so make it a regular part of your salads.

Dill

Dill is another one of the bitter foods you should be having on a regular basis. As a natural antibiotic, it can fight against cell damage and free radicals. In addition to that, dill will aid the detox process in your body.
