Many people want to get rid of their excess fats as well as lose weight. There are so many advantages but disadvantages are what's given focus by people who really wants to get out in a current heavy body that they have. That is why even science had given their help as well as they offered solutions that they provide in each and every question. Taking in fiber rich foods is one good alternative, if we really love to eat and made it a hobby already.

Well, we could make negotiations on that part.

Blueberries and their antioxidant qualities?


I've read that blueberries are one of the best antioxidant foods (whatever you want to call it) and brain foods. I also read that you should try to eat 1/2 a cup to 1 cup of blueberries a day. How long would it take to get noticeable results whether by the docor or just on my own?

Blueberries have been called a "superfood" by nutritionists, because of the huge amount of nutrients these little berries contain. They are also extremely high on the ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) scale. The higher on the scale, the greater the capacity to neutralize harmful free radicals floating around inside the body.

Blueberries are a fruit belonging to the Vaccinium family with two well known types. The first is the wild or the low-bush blueberry, bearing the scientific name ‘vaccinium angustifolium’ and the second one, the ‘vaccinium corymbosum’, is commonly known as the cultivated or the high-bush blueberry. There is one more type but that is not so well known. Its scientific name is ‘vaccinium pallidum’.

Blueberries are full of anti-oxidants and rank at the very top of the ORAC scale. This is mainly due to the presence of anthocyanin, a pigment responsible for the blue color of the blueberries. They are also rich in vitamin C content, another big factor for this as well.

Blueberries contain a special group of anti-oxidants called carotenoids (lutein, zeaxanthin etc.), flavonoids (like rutin, resveritrol, quercetin etc.), in addition to others such as vitamin C, vitamin E and vitamin A, selenium, zinc and phosphorus, which are very beneficial and essential for ocular health.

Yes, you are right about blueberries being extremely beneficial to brain health as well.. Anthocyanin, selenium, vitamins A, B-complex, C and E, zinc, sodium, potassium, copper, magnesium, phosphorus, manganese etc., among others, can prevent and heal neurotic disorders by preventing degeneration and death of brain-cells and also by restoring health of the central nervous system. Blueberries can also help cure serious problems like Alzheimer’s disease. . They can also heal damaged brain cells and neuron tissues and help keep memory sharp, even during old age.

The full extent of the health benefits of blueberries is too lengthy to capitulate here, but I have included more websites to check below.

Bliueberries are just as nutritious frozen, and will keep for up to a year. I love my blueberry smoothies with low-fat milk and a banana. Sometimes, I put a raw egg in it too for extra protein.

Blueberries usually mature in the late spring or early summer, and the season doesn't last too long. I pick mine at the Hixson farm just outside Pensacola for a dollar a pound. They don't use pesticides, and you can pick only the ones you like. I get enough to freeze to last the rest of the year. They are not only extremely nutritious, but delicious, and there are hundreds of tasty recipes to use them in. Click on the last link below to see where you can pick them near you, at a price that will beckon you too.

As far as how long it will take you to notice the results of eating blueberries, that is not possible to say without knowing more about your general health status. Let's just say that every day you don't eat them is one more day it will take you to experience the numerous health benefits of these delicious little dark-blue berries.

All my best to you.

poorly packaged

by S. Smith from on 2010-06-16
Several broke during transit causing mold to grow over all the other jars. Jars are cheaper at Walmart.


Great combos

by Judy from Woodmere, NY on 2010-05-30
My 8 month old baby loves the combinations! Its great that she's getting the nutrients she needs too!


Organic and Tasty!

by Kristen O'donnell from San Francisco, CA on 2010-04-05
I'd continue to buy but I'm moving over to more home made finger foods and away from glass jars...shattered too many. They like all the flavors though. Great textures too.


Good food for 9 month old

by S. Sharma from on 2010-02-14
My daughter loves Earth Best jar food. She is very picky about the taste so their varity comes in very handy.


Great flavor combinations - baby loves them all!

by Jennifer from Troy, MI on 2010-01-14
First, since the photo is hard to see and the description doesn't list the "flavors" included, they are:* Apple Butternut Squash * Banana Mango * Carrot Tomato * Sweet Potato ApricotEven though my baby isn't a picky eater and eats his veggies willingly, I loved the idea of combining fruit and vegetables. I figure the more flavors I can introduce him to now, the better--maybe I won't end up with a picky toddler! My baby loved all the flavors, and I even ended up buying Earth's Best 2nd Antioxidant Blend Carrot Tomato, 4 Ounce Jars (Pack of 12) because in addition to him liking that one a lot, it's the only Stage 2 food I've found that has tomato in it.I bought this variety pack countless times, and I highly recommend it to other moms.

One of my baby's favorite flavors!

by Jennifer from Troy, MI on 2009-11-19
You don't often find tomato in a baby food, and it really does smell and taste like tomato! My baby likes this flavor sooooo much that we are finally ordering an entire case (pack) of it, instead of just getting three of them in the Earth's Best 2nd Antioxidant Variety Pack, 4 Ounce Jars (Pack of 12)!! I do wish it was a little thicker, as it's one of the runnier/thinner Stage 2 foods, but I still highly recommend it!


baby loves it

by Lana from NY on 2009-07-01
i have been giving my son earth's best jared food since he was 4 mo old, i have tried every flavor and this one is one of his favorites, great price on amazon.com thanks.


Excellent BABY Food

by Gadget Girl from on 2009-04-06
We have been trying all sorts of flavors of Earth's Best and really, it's going to depend on what your baby likes and doesn't, so I hadn't planned on writing a review of them, except that this flavor got one star because some 65-year-old person complained it tastes like baby food! Well, duh, it's not made or meant for older people with stomach issues, it's for babies. Earth's Best is a good line of Organic baby foods and for what's it's worth, our baby likes the flavor. It tastes kind of like spaghetti sauce.


carrot tomato glop

by Anne Wingate from Salt Lake City on 2009-04-02
Again, I understand why my babies wouldn't eat babyfood. But as babyfood goes, the carrot tomato blend is almost edible provided salt is added. I should mention I have no babies. I am 65 and I have just had stomach surgery. Babyfood is one of the things that is not supposed to upset my stomach. Well, I'll admit I haven't had a barfing attack after eating babyfood, but on the other hand, I find it difficult to get down a whole jar. I'm used to food that tastes like food.

Sweet Potato and Apricot Blend

by Heather Dawn from New York, NY United States on 2009-08-14
My seven month old recently moved into stage two foods and has been enjoying the various combinations that Earth's Best offers. He absolutely loves this apricot and sweet potato blend, he kicks his feet with excitement with each bite -- I can't seem to get the next spoonful in his mouth fast enough. He also really likes the sweet potato and cinnamon and the pumpkin and apple blends.


Sounded great but my son would not eat it!

by D. Abston from on 2009-07-03
My son, who eats almost anything, would only eat 2 - 3 bites of this before refusing anymore. Don't order unless (1) you know your baby loves sweet potatoes and apricots and (2) he/she is a great eater already.

Great flavor!

by Gadget Girl from Alexandria, VA on 2010-04-17
This is our six month's old favorite baby food so far! The banana mango combination smells really good, and my husband and I both dipped our finger in and had a little taste. We agree it's actually tasty even to an adult, not foul smelling like a lot of jarred baby food. My daughter gobbled it up! Here on Amazon to buy more!

Description

The Maqui SuperBerry is the greatest antioxidant to hit the market. It provides more antioxidant power (ORAC) than any other "Super Fruit", even the Acai Berry. When examining the quality of an antioxidant, you only need to look at its ORAC value, since this is how the power of an antioxidant is measured. Our proprietary blend provides an extremely concentrated amount of ORAC value for a very reasonable price. Brunswick Laboratories has certified our blend as having over 11,500 ORAC value per serving, which is about 3 times the USDA recommended amount. As a result, you get over 345,000 ORAC per bottle (a 30 day supply) and over 821,400 ORAC per 100 grams.ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) is the measurement utilized to define the antioxidant concentration within foods. This is where the Maqui berry shines. It was previously believed that the Acai berry contained the most ORAC value of any food. However, the Maqui berry has shown to contain much more ORAC (antioxidant power) than even the Acai. As a result, this berry is quickly gaining more popularity and will soon dominate the antioxidant supplementation world. Give your body the best chance possible to fight aging and disease by supplying it with the ORAC it needs with Maqui.

Features

  • Maqui Berry Antioxidant Formula
  • Certified by Brunswick Laboratories! 11,500 Total ORAC Value Per Serving
  • Our Maqui blend from Patagonia Chile provides about 3 times the USDA recommendation for ORAC value!
  • 90 day supply (60 Capsules/Bottle - 2 Capsules/Serving - 1400 MG/Serving)

this product rocks

by duddnet from on 2010-07-13
this product just makes you feel good and makes your skin and body look and feel well


awesome health supplement. don't be a wuss, just drink it.

by mister trance from on 2010-06-12
I have done a lot of research on the health benefits of vegetable and the greens. This is one of those products that will work in varying degrees for different people, depending on how your body wants to respond, but really, this will do nothing but good for your health.It is shown that cultures with diets high in the the natural form of what is contained here live a longer lives.In addition to regulating the digestive system with the probiotic strains, the vegetables also contain a lot of phytonutrients that help the body, regulating the blood, and allowing your enzymes to work optimally. Very cool. I have felt more energetic and, the most interesting result so far is the clearing of my acne. I used to have pretty bad acne (I'm 23, come on), and probably about a month later from taking this daily, my acne is gone. Pretty marvelous.All in all 5 stars for sure. Worth the money. Really does not even taste that bad, just suck it up, its good for you. In my opinion, if you're gonna drop like $50 on 600g of green powder, it seems like health is more important than taste.


The best on the market

by D. Gray from Santa Fe, New Mexico on 2009-12-26
Helps keep my energy level up and steady, also keeps sugar cravings down. I never have to worry if I have eaten enough greens, pure and simple food as stated. This is the only supplement I take.


THE Perfect Food allright!

by D. Yeatman from WI on 2009-09-05
I cannot imagine a day without my Garden of Life Perfect Food Shake in the morning. I'm a 52-year old runner and triathlete and find that downing "my green drink" sets my body for the upcoming run or workout. I strongly recommend this drink to all the folks I train. Recently I "hooked" my husband on it. As a middle school teacher and football coach he needs all the energy he can muster. And during football season George says "it's a must".


tastes better with juice

by Jill Flechler from Kentucky on 2009-08-01
Yes, it does look and taste pretty disgusting. BUT you aren't drinking it for taste and if you're using this you've probably tried some pretty weird things before. I like it for how it makes me feel and am already seeing some benefits in my digestive system. I mix mine with a small amount of juice (6-8oz) and chugged it all down at once. Apple juice is good but my new favorite is to mix it with an all natural raspberry lemonade. I tried it with water and had to pour it out. Definitely try it with the juice!
