"MAXING OUT ON ANTIOXIDANTS"
These phytonutrients are wonderful,
but is there a concern that our bodies can only absorb a certain amount of antioxidants at one time,
so we should spread out our fruit and vegetable consumption?
Like the Law of Diminishing Returns, maybe we absorb only the phytonutrients
in that first cup of strawberries, but if you eat two cups at one sitting
maybe absorption kind of plateaus. So maybe it’s better to eat one cup now,
and a second in a few hours.
We finally have some data.
Is this fact or fiction?
Fiction.
Here’s about one, two, and four cup strawberry treatments,
and the more you eat, the more you benefit with no end in sight.
