Different types of cherries are sold, including dark red, orange, yellow, white, and others, but which type is most beneficial to the body?
Experts point out in response to this question that red cherries contain a higher percentage of fructose, which makes them taste sweeter than yellow cherries, so they advise people who do not like sweet foods to eat light-colored cherries, and those who like sweet foods to eat red cherries.
According to them, the percentage of beta-carotene - a powerful antioxidant, is higher in red cherries and increases in the redder ones, but in general all types of cherries contain a high percentage of beta-carotene, so they can be classified as foods that prevent the development of cancer and cardiovascular diseases.
In addition, cherries contain a high percentage of potassium and other mineral elements necessary for health.
