Summer is upon us, and the anticipation of all that comes with it. For me, the most anticipated of all summer delights is blueberry season. Of all the summer fruits available, from juicy peaches, sweet cantaloupes and larger than life watermelons, the small, unassuming blueberry, with its beautiful blue hue is the “Charles Atlas” of fruits.

While all fruits contain vitamins, fiber and antioxidants, researchers at Tuft’s University found that out of 60 fruits and vegetables, blueberries rated highest in the antioxidant capability to destroy free radicals. At their peak of freshness, these little berries are literally bursting with antioxidants called anthocyanidins, which help prevent free radical damage to collagen, the structural support of all cells and Continue Reading
