Blueberries and raspberries against brain aging

Scientists have recently shown that Bilberry increases memory and prevent dementia. They compared two groups of elderly people for two months, during which the first drank Blueberry Juice every day, while the other drank a simple fruit without Blueberry Juice. Tests before and after treatment showed a significant improvement in the ability of learning and memory of the people in the Group drinking Blueberry Juice. (1)

These results confirm previous studies conducted on animals, which showed that blueberries could reverse the deficits in the brain, and age-related problems of balance and coordination. (2)

It should be noted that the benefits of Bilberries were found on fresh fruit and fresh juice, not on Bilberry jam and even less on pies Blueberry where sugar and cooking in modified properties. When the muffin Blueberry under cellophane of McDonald's and elsewhere, sorry but it was of course forget.

However, and this is still the mountain hikers, eat the raspberries on the road is also excellent for keeping your brain faculties: a study has shown that blueberries improve learning ability, while raspberries still have a stronger effect to memory.

Do not pull on the Fox!

The main risk when you eat are blueberries or blackberries in nature, is to assault by a stroller.

It is almost automatic: as soon as you start your collection, a killjoy believing intelligent will explain, in a threatening tone, that you may fall fatally ill, due to a Fox who will pee at this location.

It is in fact an old wacky story, dating from the beginning of the 1980s: echinococcosis.

At the time, the public had been so frightened that the French Government had created an "Observatory of the alveolar echinococcosis", to identify the victims of the alleged massacre.

Thirty years later, we know that disease affects just two people for ten million, which means that you have more risk of dying in you drowning in your bathtub.

In addition, most victims do not contract this disease because a brave Fox, but by licked by an animal home or leaving food on their plate!

In short, forget the nonsense and let your children to enjoy in peace.

Blueberries and raspberries against cancer!

Many studies also suggest that these berries are powerful remedies in cancer prevention. In a laboratory study, extracts of six kinds of berries (blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, black raspberries to America, cranberries and strawberries) have had an inhibitory effect on human cells of cancer of the mouth, breast, colon and prostate. (3)

This effect would be linked to the antioxidants present in large quantities in red and black berries fresh. Antioxidants are molecules that destroy free radicals, aggressive substances that attack and distort your cell wall, them are aging, and may even encourage the appearance of cancer cells.

Antioxidants also strengthen the immune system, relieve pain fromosteoarthritis, helps digestion by calming the inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, and decrease the risk ofheart attack andstroke.

However, this efficiency has not been demonstrated in humans, and it is anyway not superior to those fresh berries from us.

The power of the acai berry comes from their exceptional concentration of antioxidants, but this content does not exceed that of blueberries and fresh raspberries.

According to a study comparing several popular fruit juice in the United States, the antioxidants of acai juice content is lower than that of grapefruit juice, grape, cherry and blueberry! However, it is higher than that of orange juice, Apple, and cranberry (cranberry). (4)

Still some good news on the blueberries and raspberries

A study on 47,000 men and 134,000 women reported that people regularly eating of blueberries or raspberries have a significantly lower risk of developinghypertension (blood pressure too high in the arteries, due to rigidity of these). The antihypertensive effect is stronger for blueberries and raspberries. (5)

With spouts of water that we have had this year, the season raspberries and Bilberries - starting now! -will be exceptional. Take your children in the mountains if you possible, and plan long beaches of time to fill the belly of Bilberries in the mountain pastures.

For Raspberry Mountain, smaller but much more fragrant than their distant descendants of the Plains (Raspberry is native to the Alps, find it so in its natural environment), the edges of the forest roads around 1500 to 1800 meters are generally the best places where to mixed shade and light, with I need of moisture.
