Health Notes from Our UMH Dietitian - Nutrients and Health Benefits of Strawberries

By: Tina Miller June 2nd, 2016

Summer is almost here… and with it, some of our favorite fresh fruits and vegetables! Just in case you forgot, the month of June is the perfect time to enjoy ripe, red strawberries. Take advantage of pick- your-own options or stop by your local supermarket or farmer’s market and bring some home. The nutrients and health benefits of strawberries are plentiful. Many thanks to Kristin Tallodi, UMH Dietetic Intern (University of Saint Joseph, Class of 2016) for sharing a few of them with us in this article. Looking for a fun and healthy new way to use your strawberries? Check out this great recipe for Cheesecake-Filled Strawberries – it’s included at the end of the article too. We made these strawberries with our residents and they were a hit! Enjoy! Tina Miller, RD UMH Senior Care Dietitian
