___ # How do i get best from it? * __Eat seasonally__ Strawberries are grown all over the world and are available through the year, but they do not store well and quickly lose their nutrients once picked. They are most delicious and nutritious when eaten fresh in a season. * __Go organic__ Most strawberries are treated with high amounts of pesticides and fungicides.Eating organic is the only way to avoid this chemical contamination. * __Strawberry and cucumber salad__ Try this unusual and detoxifying combination: hull and halve 1lb(450g) strawberries and cut 1 cucumber into thin slices. Toss in a bowl and season with freshy ground pepper (which brings out the flavor of the strawberries). Blueberries make a nice additional ingredient so add a few, if you like.Personally im adding flax or chia seeds into this mix which makes this salad super nutritional and TASTY AF.
* __Make a tea__ Stomach-soothing strawberry tea is best made from just-picked young strawberry leaves. Place a handful of fresh leaves in a teapot. Cover with boiling water and allow to steep for 5 minutes. Add honey, if you like,strain, and serve. If fresh leaves aren't available, use dried.
