🫐🍆🍇 Anthocyanins, the pigments responsible for the blue and purple hues, are potent antioxidants. They help protect the body from oxidative stress and reduce inflammation, which can lower the risk of chronic diseases such as:

How to Navigate Organic Labels:

1. Look for the USDA Organic Seal: The official green and white seal indicates the product meets the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s organic standards.

2. Read the Ingredient List: Ensure that each main ingredient you care about is labeled organic, especially for processed foods.

3. Understand Label Language: Recognize the differences between “100% organic,” “organic,” and “made with organic ingredients.”

4. Beware of Misleading Terms: Labels like “natural” or “eco-friendly” sound appealing but do not follow the same strict standards as “organic.”

Read smart. Shop smarter. Live clean.

🍎 🍉 🌶Red fruits and vegetables offer a range of health benefits due to their rich content of antioxidants.

Yes, drink lots of water, especially in summer.

Now… how much water do you actually need?
