Big on blueberries

This superfruit is abundant in the Northwest  and has so many great properties to benefit your health.  

In just one serving you can get 25% of your daily requirement of Vitamin C (which supports in the formation of collagen) and it aids in the absorption of iron.  

They are also a good source of manganese and let’s not forget all that wonderful fiber.  

The most impressive role is the ample amounts of antioxidants in this blue fruit such as polyphenols (including anthocyanins) that work wonders at neutralizing free radicals.

A little secret that most people aren't aware of is how great blueberries are at treating urinary tract infections (equivalent to cranberries) by preventing bacteria from adhering to the bladder wall.

Blueberries can help with…

  • Vision

  • Brain health

  • Urinary health

  • Heart disease

  • Digestion

  • Mood disorders

  • Skin

Give it a try in a morning smoothie, add them to yogurt, or just eat them as a snack.
