PERFECT WEIGHT LOSS FOOD

Foods that are high in water can help keep you feeling fuller for a longer period of time than foods and drinks that are higher in calories. Cherries are also loaded with soluble fibre.

PREVENT CANCER AND DISEASE
Cherries are full of antioxidants. which have a several benefits including the ability to prevent cancer and heart disease, as well as combating free radicals. The antioxidants found in cherries also work to slow the signs of aging.

Your body does have the ability to produce its own melatonin but not everyone is able to produce all the melatonin that is needed. Eating cherries before bed acts works by replacing some of the lost melatonin thus helping you sleep.

By helping to reduce inflammation in the body, the anthocyanin and bioflanoids in cherries also help eliminate migraine headaches. These compounds are known to have similar activity to aspirin and ibuprofen.

Cherries also contain boron, which helps increase bone health when consumed in conjunction with magnesium and calcium.

C$ (C Money) was one of the nicknames given to me in school when I took an Igloo cooler for a school trip versus a brown paper bag, like everyone else. The bag in this photo would do the same today.
