Discover the compelling research that the blueberry
may help to support health & vitality ...
Research is indicating that Blueberries may be more than just a tasty fruit snack.
Scientific
studies over the last decades are pointing to the fact that blueberries
are a simple way to fill up on essential antioxidants -
and dramatically more so than other fruit.
Recent scientific studies and research have shown that blueberries are one of the top fruit in antioxidant activity compared to over 40 other fruits and vegetables (Jean Mayer, USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University). This makes the blueberry an important addition to a healthier and rejuvenating eating plan.
Some Blueberry Scientific Studies ...
Scientific research from the Agricultural Research Service (the US Department of Agriculture's leading scientific research agency), have pinpointed Blueberries, Cranberries, Huckleberries and related fruit as containing resveratrol, a potential anticancer agent.
In recent USDA studies, blueberries have, in fact, been shown to be number one in antioxidant activity, as compared to 40 other fruits and vegetables (Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University).
The phytochemicals responsible for making the blueberry the healthiest fruit around are anthocyanins. These are found in other berries but there are more of them in blueberries.
