Beauty Benefits
Believe it or not, blueberries actually may make you better looking, or at least slow the physical effects of aging. Blueberries contain polyphenols, which combat the effect of free radicals. Free radicals are a key cause of wrinkles, so eating blueberries can help keep your skin looking younger, for a longer time. Polyphenols also contribute to collagen production, keeping the skin supple.
Blueberries can also help give you the shiny, commercial-worthy hair you’ve always wanted. Whether through their consumption, or applied to the hair externally with a blueberry enhanced product, blueberries will leave your hair healthier and stronger. Blueberries actually stimulate hair growth. They contain a plant chemical called proanthocyanidins which interacts with hair follicles to accelerate growth.
