Below are 7 fruits that are highly valued for their ability to improve health and help prolong life.

Pomegranate

Pomegranates are rich in polyphenols and anthocyanins, two powerful antioxidants that can reduce inflammation and protect cells from free radical damage.

According to research from the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, regular consumption of pomegranates helps improve heart health, reduce the risk of stroke and maintain youthful skin.

Blueberries

Blueberries are a rich source of vitamin C, vitamin K, and anthocyanins. A study from Harvard Medical School found that blueberries can improve brain function, reduce the risk of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, and help prolong life.

Avocado

Avocados are rich in monounsaturated fats, potassium and vitamin E, which support heart health and reduce bad cholesterol (LDL). People who regularly consume avocados have a lower risk of heart disease and have lower inflammation than those who do not eat them, according to the British Journal of Nutrition.

Apple

Apples contain pectin, a soluble fiber that improves gut health, lowers cholesterol, and controls blood sugar. According to the Journal of Functional Foods, eating an apple a day can help reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer, and type 2 diabetes.

Orange

Oranges are not only rich in vitamin C but also contain flavonoids that help reduce inflammation and boost the immune system. WHO recommends adding oranges to your diet to reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as high blood pressure and stroke.

Kiwi

Kiwi is a superfood with twice the vitamin C content of oranges and is rich in antioxidants such as lutein and zeaxanthin. According to the Journal of Nutrition, regular consumption of kiwi helps protect the eyes, improve sleep and reduce stress, all of which contribute to longevity.

Strawberry

Strawberries are a rich source of fiber, vitamin C, and manganese. Research from the European Journal of Nutrition shows that strawberries have the ability to protect blood vessels, reduce the risk of atherosclerosis, and effectively control weight.

Usage advice:

To get the most out of these fruits, consume 3-4 servings of fruit per day, preferably fresh, unprocessed fruits. Experts from the WHO also recommend combining fruit with a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle to optimize health and longevity.
