U.S. and Thai researchers say any colored fruit might be rendered even more healthy for us to consume with the addition of a splash of alcohol, they report in the Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture. Any fruit or vegetable that contains color is rich in antioxidants, which can cancel out the cell-damaging effects of compounds called free radicals. For example, people who eat more berries have a documented lower risk of cancer, heart disease and some neurological diseases.
