Wild blueberries offer more than just great taste. These tiny fruits are packed with highly concentrated and powerful antioxidants that can help combat disease and promote healthy aging.
Deep-blue Wild Blueberries may be 鈥渙ne of the best age-proofing foods in your diet,鈥?according to James A. Joseph, Ph.D., co-author of The Color Code and lead researcher at the Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging.
Recent research from the USDA study results indicate that Wild Blueberries have the highest antioxidant capacity per serving when compared to 20 other fruits. Using a lab testing procedure called Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC), Dr. Ronald Prior, lead researcher at the USDA Arkansas Children鈥檚 Nutrition Center and Agricultural Research Service, found that a one-cup serving of Wild Blueberries had more total antioxidant capacity (TAC) than a serving of cranberries, strawberries, plums, raspberries and even cultivated blueberries. According to Dr. Prior, 鈥淲ild Blueberries are stars in terms of their antioxidant capacity.鈥?br />
Scientists around the world are studying the wild blueberry and the many health benefits offered by this tiny blue fruit. The many potential health benefits of Wild Blueberries include:
