Read on to learn 4 raspberry health benefits

Yum! There's nothing quite like fresh, local raspberries.

4 reasons why raspberries are good for you
1. Raspberries contain a high amount of antioxidants, and are known mostly for their antioxidant tannin called ellagic acid. Ellagic acid helps to prevent damage from free radicals - a group of odd numbered electrons that can cause damage when they react with DNA.

2. Some research has indicated that raspberries help ward off cancer.

3. They contain vitamin C, giving your immune system a boost every time you eat these tasty suckers.

4. Eating fruits and vegetables that contain antioxidant vitamins (like vitamin A, C and E) as well as cartenoids help protect your eyes from age-related macular degeneration. Add a handful of raspberries to you morning oatmeal to keep your eyes healthy.

Did you know
• Raspberries contain 50% more antioxidants than strawberries
• You can also find purple, gold and black raspberries
• There are 200 different species of raspberries
• Raspberries belong to the rose family (no wonder they're so pretty!)
