Health Benefits of Blueberries

Antioxidants

As we get older – and that is from birth – our body produces “free radicals”.

These are unstable molecules that damage our cells and DNA. They are natural, but they have many disadvantages. They are associated with cancer, heart disease and aging. Every day, the cells in our body fight against these “free radicals”.

Antioxidants help our cells in this battle. Blueberries have a very high antioxidant content compared to other types of fruit. 

In addition, they contain a lot of vitamin C, vitamin A and B, minerals and trace elements. 

Blueberries: the tastiest way to stay healthy!
