Blueberries Dilate Arteries
What do these berries do, exactly, that helps the body so
much? According to the study, fruits such as blueberries contain
large amounts of dietary flavonoids (these are also found in
strawberries, blackberries, eggplant, grapes and other vegetables
and fruits). A sub-class of these flavonoids can help dilate arteries,
which fights plaque buildup.
Blueberries Contain Antioxidants
Blueberries help to decrease the free radicals inside your body
and to fight inflammation in the cardiovascular system.

Blueberries Benefit the Mind
Antioxidants that are present in many fruits, including
blueberries, help strengthen cells and increase oxygen levels
in the body. This can have a positive impact on brain health.
Blueberries Are Low in Calories
It is good to eat fruits every day, especially blueberries.
But, like everything, there is a limit, so don’t overdo it.
One cup of blueberries will make you feel full and contains
around 80 calories. Plus, they are high in fiber,
so they will help you stay fuller longer.
Recently, the
Journal of the American Heart Association
published
a study reporting that blueberries may cut heart attack risk in
women. The study found that eating at least three or more servings of blueberries
per week may reduce a woman’s risk of heart disease by as much as one-third.
