Fruit & Nut Munch Mix

Cranberries are a great source of Vitamin C and antioxidants that may help prevent blood clots and bladder infections.  Almonds are one of the best sources of Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that may help reduce the risk of cancer.  This yummy snack is also a good source of fiber.
