| For decades, blueberries have been believed to be a very healthful fruit, but recently, science has actually documented their high antioxidant capacity. Antioxidants are beneficial in neutralizing the effects of free radicals which attack human cells and damage DNA. The flavonoid substance in the pigment of the blueberry, called anthocyanin, is being studied for its links to improved eyesight and reduction in the incidence of age-related diseases.
Of all the popular summer fruits, blueberries have a distinct advantage, nutritionally speaking. They've earned the distinction of being one of the most potent sources of antioxidants, which help counteract heart disease, cancers, and other types of illnesses. Since blueberries are also very beautiful, be sure to look at the other interesting items we have in the store, all with a "blue" theme. |
