Blueberries and the relief of symptons of Arthritis
Flavonoid rich foods such as cherries, blueberries, and blackberries
are beneficial in the treatment of arthritis because
they prevent the destruction of the joint structure.
It is believed that the pigment, anthocyanadin in blueberries
interacts with the collagen of both large and tiny blood vessels,
making their walls stronger and helping deter fragile capillaries
as well as varicose veins.
Blueberries also may reduce blood platelet aggregation, meaning
they help prevent the blood from clumping together.
Blueberries contain strong anti-inflammatories such as the arthritis-relieving
pigment cyanidin.
