Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins
It's
summer and that means blueberries are in abundance everywhere! This
luscious blue fruit is packed with health benefits and I try to
incorporate them into my diet as often as possible. I'm always looking
for ways to improve my diet and the addition of blueberries is an easy
way to do so.
Blueberries are highly concentrated in
antioxidants that may help combat disease and promote healthy aging. A
few of the potential health benefits of blueberries include:
- Brain
Health: Ongoing brain research shows that blueberries may improve motor
skills and reverse the short-term memory loss that comes with aging. - Cancer Prevention: Research shows that blueberry compounds may inhibit all stages of cancer.
- Heart Health: Research indicates that blueberries may protect against heart disease and damage from stroke.
- Vision Health: Research has indicated that blueberries may improve night vision and prevent tired eyes.
You
can see why I am such a fan of blueberries. This week all of my posts
will feature recipes that include blueberries. Try one or two of them.
Your brain, your heart, and your eyes will thank you. Not to mention
your stomach!
