The autumn months are a great time to stock up on vitamins before the cold weather sets in.

It is better to pay attention to seasonal berries, which doctors call real superfoods, concentrated benefits under a thin, dense skin.

Nutritionist Anna Ivashkevich spoke in more detail about such fruits, reports AiF .

She recommended eating cranberries, which are rich in vitamins and microelements, have a positive effect on the condition of the heart and blood vessels, and also have an anti-inflammatory effect.

Contraindications should not be forgotten either. Those who have gastritis, urolithiasis and increased stomach acidity should avoid cranberries.

But these are not all the useful autumn berries. Ivashkevich also singled out sea buckthorn, which has a positive effect on immunity.

Another useful berry is lingonberry, which is rich in folic and ascorbic acid. The fruits help fight infections and bacteria.

Don't forget about viburnum either. It has a specific taste, but it will still perfectly decorate baked goods, porridges, or become the basis for homemade jams. According to the doctor, the leaves and flowers of this plant can be used for decoctions during the cold season.
