Nothing says summer quite like the taste of fresh, in-season produce. From colorful berries to leafy greens, buying fruits and vegetables at their peak from your local farmer’s market or grocery store is good for both your health and your wallet.
Studies have shown over and over that fruits and veggies can help reduce the risk for cardiovascular diseases, including strokes, type 2 diabetes and some cancers.
All fruits and vegetables stand out because they’re loaded with water — and pack in relatively few calories — and have little fat and no cholesterol. But some shine brighter than others this time of year.
These seven foods are at their nutritious and flavorful best during the warm months, making them a must-have in your summer diet.
