The French National Health and Nutrition Programme recommends eating five fruits or vegetables a day. Five portions of fruit or vegetables of approximately 80 to 100 grams per day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, before eating your fruits and vegetables, it is important to wash them thoroughly to eliminate all the bacteria present. Even if you buy your fruit from an organic store or grow it at home, it can contain germs that are harmful to your health. To consume and appreciate all the flavors of strawberries, here is how to properly wash this red fruit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"pourquoi-vous-ne-devriez-pas-laver-vos-fraises-a-leau-avant-de-les-consommer\">Why you shouldn&#8217;t wash your strawberries with water before eating them<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.santeplusmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/fraise0-10.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-347952\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"caption-attachment-347952\">Strawberries. Source: spm<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some people think that it is enough to wash strawberries with water to eat them, but that is not enough. Fresh fruits and vegetables do not naturally contain microorganisms that can cause foodborne illnesses, but during their cultivation they can come into contact with bacteria, present in the soil, in the water or in wild or domestic animals.&nbsp;&nbsp;These fruits and vegetables&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>&nbsp;can also be contaminated during transport&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;or even during their installation on market stalls&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>.&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;Strawberry lovers,&nbsp;&nbsp;you will certainly consume more of them,&nbsp;&nbsp;so it will be important&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>&nbsp;to wash them well before eating them.&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;Especially since by washing strawberries with water, you risk clogging them and altering their taste. As a result, they will be less tasty and flavorful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2013&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>Washing your strawberries with water is not enough to consume them<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.santeplusmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/fraise0-20.jpg\" alt=\"Wash the strawberries with water\" class=\"wp-image-347951\" title=\"Do you wash strawberries with water only before eating them?

Source: SPM<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Washing strawberries with water will not help you remove all the bacteria and pesticides that are on them. If you wash them with water alone, you could develop foodborne illnesses from the bacteria and germs still on the fruit. Washing strawberries with water is a simple solution, but it will not remove pesticides from non-organic fruit. To safely consume store-bought strawberries,&nbsp;&nbsp;you will need&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>&nbsp;to wash them with a powerful cleaner&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;to remove any germs that may be on the fruit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"comment-bien-laver-les-fraises-pour-les-consommer\">How to properly wash strawberries before eating them?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Discover these methods to properly wash your strawberries and consume them without pesticides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2013&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>Clean the strawberries with vinegar<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.santeplusmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/fraise0-30.jpg\" alt=\"Strawberries and cider vinegar\" class=\"wp-image-347950\" title=\"Do you wash strawberries with water only before eating them?

To remove pesticides, bacteria, and dirt from your strawberries, you can use apple cider vinegar. In a container, pour the equivalent of three cups of cold water and one cup of cider vinegar or white vinegar. Then,&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>soak your strawberries for about twenty minutes&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;in the obtained solution. To finish, rinse your strawberries with cold water, remembering to drain them to prevent them from acidifying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2013&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>Clean the strawberries with baking soda<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To clean your strawberries, you can use baking soda. Soak your strawberries in a solution of water and baking soda. To do this, simply mix one tablespoon of baking soda with four cups of water and&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>soak the strawberries in it&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>&nbsp;for&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>five&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>&nbsp;minutes<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;. Finally, rinse them with cold water. The baking soda will remove dirt and pesticides from the strawberries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2013&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>Wash the strawberries in red wine<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can soak your strawberries in&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>red wine diluted&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>in&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>two glasses of water for ten minutes<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;. Then, rinse them one by one to remove all traces of pesticides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2013&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>Wash the strawberries with salted water<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Soak the strawberries for a few minutes in a&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>mixture of water&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>and&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>a few tablespoons of salt<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;. Then rinse them with cold water to remove any salt residue and dirt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you wash your strawberries, treat them gently because they are very sensitive fruits. They will always be tastier and you will be able to enjoy them with pleasure and enthusiasm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fruits and vegetables are very important for our health.
