A handful a day for good health
Who would have thought one little fruit could be so good for you? And so tasty?
It’s true. A handful of blueberries each day delivers a huge range of health benefits that will make you feel great inside and out.
The secret to the success of the humble little blueberry is its stratospheric antioxidant content. Just half a cup of blueberries contains the same amount of antioxidants as:
- 2 ¼ cups of broccoli
- 2 ½ cups of spinach
- 2 ½ cups of corn
As you probably know, antioxidants are one of nature’s wonders that help protect our bodies from a range of diseases and illnesses.
How do antioxidants work? Every day, our cells wage a battle against free radicals – unstable oxygen molecules associated with cancer, heart disease and the effects of aging. Dietary antioxidants come to the rescue by neutralising the free radicals and helping to prevent cell damage.
Here are just some of the ways that blueberries and their antioxidant-rich juices will boost your health and wellbeing.
