7 SEASONAL SUPERFRUITS

Use this guide to score the best winter produce
Sure, you can buy strawberries year-round, but that doesn't mean they'll always taste good. Thanks to the miracles of modern food distribution, 90 percent of what's in your grocery store right now was picked weeks ago on some other continent and is devoid of taste or nutrition. That's not the case with everything in the produce bin, though. These 7 Seasonal Superfruits will keep your taste buds happy all winter and are packed with antioxidants, inflammation-lowering polyphenols, and flu-busting vitamins.

Bonus Tip: Vitamin D fortifies your immune system and boosts mental health. But the shorter days of winter can leave you D-depleted. Reach for a serving of Greek yogurt, which is packed with the stuff. For other cold-weather survival strategies, check out these 5 Surprising Winter Health Tips.
