HEALTH & BENEFITS

Strawberries and oranges are both excellent sources of vitamin C, which is essential for maintaining a healthy immune system. Strawberries are also high in antioxidants and fiber, which can help reduce the risk of chronic diseases. Cava, like other forms of wine, contains polyphenols, which are compounds that may have cardiovascular benefits when consumed in moderation.
