Organic Strawberries & 3 Reasons To Invest By Philippe Van Den Bossche

By Rob Sutter


It'd be easy to say that all types of food are great to buy as far as organics are concerned. After all, they aren't treated with any chemical components that can lead to one's health being compromised in the long run but the more expensive costs are hard to deny. That being said, if there is one type of food that should be bought organically, there aren't many that can stack up to strawberries, which I'm sure Philippe van den Bossche would agree with. If you would like to know, here is a list of 3 reasons to consider.

1. Keep in mind the rigged exterior of strawberries. One of the most common visual traits to consider, apart from the bright red skin of strawberries, has got to be the small bumps that exist on them. These could prove to be troublesome, as they make washing off the pesticides of conventionally grown strawberries that much more difficult. With 13 known pesticides to take into account, it's clear that going organic in this regard is one of the best choices that can be taken up.

2. Philippe van den Bossche, as well as other authorities on the matter, can tell you that strawberries are some of the best for the sake of nutrition. It is useful to go with strawberries for the sake of health overall but what are some of the specific minerals and vitamins that come with them? Vitamin C is an easy one to mention but the presence of anthocyanins can be supported by various authorities, Philippe included. These serve as free radical-fighting components, able to help the body in terms of preventing conditions like cancer.

3. Can strawberries prove to be useful in order to prevent memory loss as well? According to a study that was shown in the Annals of Neurology, consuming strawberries could lead to cognitive impairments being delayed by a period of 2.5 years. It is easy to pinpoint how these berries will be able to help in certain ways, such as reducing cancer risk in the long term. Mental health is important as well, though, which makes organic strawberries that much more of an investment.

As one can imagine, there are other benefits to take into account as far as strawberries are concerned. That being said, the reasons listed above were the ones that stood out to me the most and for good reasons as well. Not everyone can purchase all of their food organically, which is understandable when considering the prices that they stand at. However, if you are able to make the change to just one food item out of the bunch, this is a choice worth looking into.
