Winter does not spoil us with an abundance of fruit, but it is during this period that the body needs a vitamin boost.
There are three main fruits that you should include more often in your diet in winter.
Pomegranate
Pomegranate seeds contain a lot of vitamin C. It plays a vital role in protecting the body from colds and infections.
However, there is a less obvious benefit of ascorbic acid. Vitamin C will strengthen blood vessels, so that your nose will not turn red in the cold.
Bananas
This fruit should be eaten in winter for a number of reasons. Firstly, it contains a lot of potassium, which is necessary for strengthening the cardiovascular system.
Secondly, bananas are as caloric as potatoes. In some countries, the fruit is not a dessert, but a side dish.
Thirdly, the fruit contains a lot of vitamin B6. It is important for people who have a stressful job. If stress and fatigue are on your heels, then bananas are worth eating not only in winter.
Persimmon
You shouldn’t overeat persimmons, like other fruits, but it’s worth including them in your winter diet.
The large amount of potassium and magnesium makes it a valuable ingredient for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.
Vitamins A and C strengthen the immune system and help the body fight colds more effectively.
Earlier, “TUT NOVOSTI” reported on the benefits and harms of nutmeg: in small doses it reduces weight and prolongs life, but in large doses it kills.
