According to new research out of the U.S., Blueberries have even more great health benefits. the clinical trial showed that eating a cup of Blueberries, every day, can help to reduce your blood pressure and arterial stiffness.
Arterial stiffness, often developed from hypertension, can lead to cardiovascular problems further down the line. In addtion to their low GI index and high antioxidant benefits, did we really need another reason to dive into some Blueberries? You can use your Orchard Gold Supreme Blueberries to flavour you morning porridge, surprise your children with a homemade blueberry muffin in their lunches, or better yet, eat the Blueberries as a healthy snack, straight from the packet!
