Detox Tip; Eat Berries! Anthocyanins are the pigments found in most blue, purple and dark red-skinned fruits (like berries), vegetables and legumes, and they are an important nutrient for detoxification. Anthocyanins act as antioxidants that help fight free radical damage (damage caused by oxidative stress such as poor diet, smoking and environmental factors). They also have anti-inflammatory and cancer preventative benefits. So we should eat them! Berries also have a lower GI than most other fruits so you can enjoy them without worrying about spiking your blood sugar 👍 I've just put up a recipe on my blog of a delicious detoxifying spicy blueberry salsa, check out the link in my bio or here 👇 https://fleurbailey.com/2019/01/18/detoxifying-blueberry-salsa/ #detox #detoxtips #detoxspecialist #berries #blueberries #nutritionist #nutrition #nourish #detoxfoods #healthyfood #eatclean #eatmoreplants #eatmoreberries #salsa #blueberrysalsa
