A recent study published by Annals of Neurology on April 26, 2012 states often eating berries was able to maintain healthy brain function with the increment of age. The study also found that, women who often consume berries, like blueberries or strawberries may delay brain aging by 2.5 years, than women who do not eat berries. Brain aging include decreased ability to think and to remember someone.
"So great that we can get the benefits of fruits, it is advisable to increase consumption of fruits every day, especially berries, as a way to maintain brain function with age," said Elizabeth Devore, a Medical Expert in Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, in Boston.
Berry fruit is rich of flavonoids, antioxidants that are useful purely to reduce inflammation and protect body cells from free radical damage. The content of flavanoids that are found in berries, apples, and oranges, has been shown can reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and cancer, as presented Nancy Copperman, Director of Public Health Initiatives in North Shore-LIJ Health System, New York, some time ago.
