But the more I learn about their incredible health benefits, the more of them I want to eat!<br \/>\nWild or organic blueberries are usually best. But conventionally grown blueberries are fabulous for you, too. In fact, these studies were done on people who were, for the most part, eating conventionally grown blueberries \u2014 and they got stunning results that positively impacted a variety of health issues!<br \/>\nSurprisingly, studies have found that frozen blueberries contain as much or more health-boosting components than fresh ones, including vitamin C, anthocyanins, polyphenols, and other antioxidants.<br \/>\nThis is probably because fresh berries lose some of their nutritional potency every day that passes after harvest. So whether you eat them fresh, frozen, or even dried, blueberries can be an outstanding addition to your healthy eating lifestyle.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/foodrevolution.org\/blog\/are-blueberries-good-for-you\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/foodrevolution.org\/blog\/are-blueberries-good-for-you\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blueberries may be tiny, but remarkable new studies tell us they\u2019re one of the most powerful health-promoting foods on the planet.
