That wonderful fruit we call the strawberry.  

Filled with antioxidants, they have amazing anti-inflammatory properties helping prevent chronic illnesses caused by excessive inflammation in the body.  This includes cardiovascular disease, heart disease and several types of cancer.  They help lower your cholesterol and blood pressure and help improve your blood sugar regulation by stopping blood sugar spikes, leaving you feeling energized and full, and not tired and hungry like most sugars do.

Does this mean they counteracted the sugary goodness that lay peacefully underneath them in this tart?
