Redeeming Health Solutions

Adults who ate 38 grams of blueberry powder daily experienced a dramatic 73% increase in their NK (natural killer) immune cell count after 6 weeks. That’s according to a placebo-controlled, fully randomized clinical trial in the USA. That much powder equates to 250 grams of fresh berries daily. That’s a lot, but a more normal dose of 100 grams daily may still provide some benefit. Blueberries are packed with powerful nutrients like anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins and vitamin C—each of which has been linked to lower risk in human population studies. So this holiday season and beyond, consider upping your intake of this amazing berry!
