Talking Another Good Effect of Fruits & Veggies

Apparently, the antioxidants from a diet which contains fruits and veggies (in this experiment, they used two of our lc staples - blueberries and spinach ) have a protective effect in the event of a stroke.

The group who ate the fruits and/or veggies had much less damage from strokes than those who didn't.

Check it out
