Blueberries vs Alzheimer's
Eating blueberries may protect ageing brains and help stave off symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease, new research suggests. Scientists from the University of Cincinnati in the US gave a group of volunteers either blueberries in a powder form or a placebo powder. Blueberry powder was found to improve the thinking performance of 47 adults aged 68 and older who already had mild cognitive impairment, a risk factor for Alzheimer’s.
