In spring, the first seasonal berries and fruits appear in stores.

But in some cases they can be harmful to health.

Nutritionist Rustem Sadykov, as reported by Doctor Peter , explained which fruits and berries should be used with caution in such cases.

He reported that some berries and fruits that end up on shelves at the beginning of spring may have experienced a shortage of essential substances during the winter.

Moreover, the expert noted that without various fertilizers and special means they might simply not grow.

It is emphasized that the danger in such a situation is posed by substances that can be used by producers for the maturation and preservation of the species.

Therefore, in early spring it is not recommended to buy some fruits and berries. In particular, this concerns strawberries, cherries and peaches.

In addition, you should not buy apricots during this period. After all, they may still be unripe, and therefore they will contain fewer useful substances.

You should also not rush to buy early raspberries, strawberries and blackberries.

Therefore, the doctor advises choosing seasonal fruits from local producers.

Thus, apples, as the expert pointed out, can retain their properties throughout the winter period. The same applies to kiwi, pears, citrus fruits and bananas.

The doctor also advises eating fresh greens in the spring. These products contain many useful substances and fiber.

Beetroot will also bring many benefits. It contains iron, boron, iodine and various vitamins.

Earlier, the doctor told when it is best to drink kefir.
