The Benefits of Blueberries for the Brain When you look in the medical literature studies on berries, pop up articles like this: Blueberries, Blueberry muffin rash, ah Or photos of the tongue after eating strawberries, or as a way of describing the appearance of feces, although the stools that really resemble black currant jelly, are not very common.
What is this love affair? The pathologist with the food terminology? – the best part is the way, which describes aerobic infections in the chest, in which you spit out manure that looks like Anchovy sauce that sounds nasty – even without us.

There are also studies of forest fruits grown in the yard – basic nutritional supplements, which are supposed to improve cognitive performance. See how there is a steep rise in the additive group?

They found adding easy achievable amounts of blueberries to the food of older people can improve some aspects of cognitive ability, such as long-term memory. In terms of the number of errors, the placebo group got worse, and the blueberry group improved.
We can even relate cognitive improvements with improved brain function using advanced brain scanning technology to your actually imagine improved blood flow to those same brain regions, caused by the consumption of blueberries.
Does it work in children? Cranberry treatment has been shown to have positive effects on cognitive function in both rats and adults, but does it mean that there are benefits to them and children – human children?
