The straw”berry” we eat is not a berry or even a fruit; it is the enlarged receptacle of the flower. Strawberries are the only fruit with seeds (about 200) on the outside.
They are a member of the Rose family.
Strawberries is rich in potassium, which assists in muscle contraction and in maintaining fluid and electrolyte balance in body cells. Its folic acid, a crucial vitamin for pregnant woman (for brain development of baby) is one of the highest among fruits. A cup of strawberries has more Vitamin C than an orange!
