Support digestion
Blueberries are a source of fiber. Fiber promotes bowel movements and improves beneficial bacteria in the gut. The high polyphenol content in the fruit peel also feeds gut bacteria, helping to support better metabolism.
Fight inflammation
kumquat is rich in anthocyanin. Anthocyanins help reduce oxidative stress and inflammation. Uncontrolled oxidative stress can damage cells and DNA, promoting inflammation, aging and chronic disease.
Weight control
With low calories, blueberries can enhance the flavor of dishes and control energy intake. Both the fiber and antioxidants in blueberries can contribute to weight loss.
Fiber promotes satiety. Antioxidants help reduce inflammation often associated with weight gain.
No sudden increase in blood sugar
Blueberries have a low glycemic index, which does not cause a spike in blood sugar after eating. Stable blood sugar control helps reduce pressure on the body's insulin system and is the foundation for metabolic health.
