A Berry Delicious Treat (with Beauty Benefits!!)

The vibrant, beautiful colors of many fruits and vegetables are Mother Nature's way of telling us that those foods are loaded with antioxidants. The rich hue of blueberries and strawberries, is a signal that they are packed with an antioxidant system called Polyphenols, that help protect skin and act as an anti-inflammatory, improving skin texture.

Polyphenols from blueberries may also have a slimming effect, a study suggests. Researchers at Texas Woman's University treated mouse cells with either blueberry polyphenols (in three different doses) or a control solution. The active compounds blocked the growth of new fat cells and the buildup of lipids inside cells, reducing total fat by up to 73 percent at the highest dose.



This super easy DIY Popsicle is high in antioxidants, high in fiber, low in sugar.
Simply blend fresh: Strawberries, blueberries and raspberries, then fill an ice pop maker,
like the one by Ikea (CHOSIGT Ice pop maker, $1.99, )
For the mold to easily loosen, rinse with lukewarm water.
