They make a great ground cover. With an extra feed and leafing, two crops are possible here.

                <DIV><STRONG>Antioxidants</STRONG>
At a study at the Department of Food Science, at Cornell University, New York it was shown that strawberries contain <STRONG>high levels of antioxidants</STRONG>, which can decrease the risk of chronic disease. They were also shown to significantly reduce liver cancer cells. In addition to their known beneficial effects on cancer and heart disease, the antioxidant qualities of strawberries may also be beneficial in <STRONG>reversing the course of neuronal and behavioural aging.</STRONG></DIV>

                <DIV><STRONG>Cancer</STRONG>
Ellagic acid is present in many red fruits and berries, including raspberries, strawberries, blackberries and cranberries. Studies have shown that strawberry consumption can <STRONG>increase anti-cancer activity</STRONG> on cancer cells of the breast, oesophagus, skin, colon, prostate and pancreas. More specifically, ellagic acid prevents the destruction of P53 gene by cancer cells. Ellagic acid can also bind with cancer causing molecules, thereby making them inactive.</DIV>
