Blueberries

Blueberries are considered super foods, because they are low in calories – which makes them great as snacks for people who try to lose a few extra pounds, they contain antioxidants, fiber and other nutrients that are essential for your body to work properly.

Researchers believe that blueberries contain the highest amount of antioxidants among all common fruits and even vegetables. Hence, the antioxidants in blueberries can help reduce harmful free radicals in your body, levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol, blood pressure and inflammation, as well as your risk of developing heart disease.

Don’t forget that before changing something in your diet, it is essential to seek the opinion of your doctor first. The truth is that there are some healthy foods and habits promoted by a lot of experts on social media, TV and other online platforms, but what may be good for them, may not be good for you as well, especially if you suffer from various other diseases. For example, nuts are super healthy foods, but they aren’t recommended for people who suffer from hyperlipidemia (abnormally high levels of fats (lipids) in the blood – in other words: high levels of triglycerides and cholesterol).
