• Vitamins
  Blueberries are a good source of Vitamin C.

• Antioxidants
  Anthocyandins are compounds that are responsible for the blueberries’ pigment, and these compounds have exceptionally high antioxidant activity. In a study of 60 fruits vegetables, the antioxidant capabilities of blueberries rated the highest.

• Alzheimer’s
  Research has shown that blueberries help protect the brain from oxidative stress, and may reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s and other age-related neurodegenerative diseases.

• Vision
  Numerous studies have demonstrated that extract of blueberry improves night vision by allowing quicker adjustment to darkness. Other research shows that blueberry extract may help to prevent cataracts and glaucoma.

• Bladder
  Blueberries contain the same compounds found in cranberries that help prevent and treat urinary tract infections by reducing the ability of bacteria to adhere to the mucosal lining of the bladder and urethra.

• Cancer
  Overwhelming evidence suggests that small and soft-fleshed berries such as the blueberry may have beneficial effects against several types of human cancers. The ability of the bioactive phytochemicals of berries to counteract, reduce, and repair oxidative stress damage, is responsible for the blueberries’ anticancer potential.

• Diabetes
  In a study at Montreal Diabetes Research Center, extracts of the Canadian blueberry show promise for use as a complementary anti-diabetic therapy.
