In Indiana right now it is berry picking season, but there may be more benefits to those delicious berries than you realize. Berries are loaded with antioxidants and anthocyanins which can benefit more than just your taste buds.
What berries can do for your health
A basket of berries may be a good way to boost your memory. In a recent study, researchers discovered that the extracts of certain berries helped combat oxidative stress and DNA damage, both of which play roles in the development of Alzheimer’s disease.
In addition to protecting your memory, these berries can help fight cancer and increase skin cell turnover, making you look younger. For more information on what these berries can do for you, check out http://www.realage.com/, and don’t forget to attend the local berry picking festival!
