About this episode
Cherry season is almost upon us, so we thought we'd revisit our cherry episode from last year. Enjoy🍒
"The day when doctor's say take 10 cherries and call me in the morning" may not be far off, according to a recent Newsweek article.
Taken from the book 'The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth' by Jonny Bowden PhD, tis the season...summer season, that is, for cherries to be dripping off the trees.
This fruit holds historical significance and is beneficial for health for several reasons, as Rob and Sandra discuss in this Nutrition Nuggets.
Some details regarding cherry's history were discussed, and some information was taken from:
