Strawberry intake was associated with a 10 percent lower risk of developing diabetes. Researchers also found that women who ate fewer servings of strawberries were more likely to have higher hemoglobin A1c levels, increasing their risk for diabetes.
Regular consumption of strawberries may provide protection from high fat/carbohydrate meal-induced increases in fibrinolytic and inflammatory factors in at-risk men and women.
Results indicate the potential for strawberries to protect against oxidative stress, a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.
High anthocyanin intake is associated with a reduced risk of myocardial infarction in young and middle-aged women Those who consumed more than three servings of anthocyanin-rich strawberries and blueberries per week had a 32 percent lower risk of heart attack than women who did not consume berries.
Strawberry anthocyanin and its association with postprandial inflammation and insulin Inflammatory responses and post-meal insulin response were significantly decreased with the strawberry intervention.
Higher consumption of strawberries (≥2 servings/week) was associated with slower rates of cognitive decline, appearing to delay cognitive aging by up to 2.5 years. Greater intakes of anthocyanidins and total flavonoids was also associated with slower rates of cognitive decline.
Strawberries are rich in nutrients and phytochemicals — including vitamins, anthocyanins, ellagitanins, quercetin, and catechin. These bioactive components seem to be responsible for medicinal and therapeutic effects on human health.
Eﬀects of strawberries on bone biomarkers in pre-and stage 1-hypertensive postmenopausal women: a secondary analysis Analysis revealed benefits for bone health due to increased synthesis of serum insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). This growth hormone is known to stimulate bone formation.
