Blueberries Can Enhance Memory And Delay Senility

Blueberries, an excellent source of antioxidants, can not only help prevent memory loss but also protect against degenerative conditions like cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

However, to release the full potential of blueberries, scientists recommend consuming the whole fruit instead of only drinking the juice or swallowing blueberry extract capsules.
