3 ways to love your blueberries

Blueberries may be small, but they’re big on nutrition. Here are great health reasons to add them to your shopping basket this spring season:

1. Gut goodness. Offering 4.4g fibre per punnet, blueberries are a smart choice if you want a healthy gut.

2. Amazing antioxidants. Blueberries get their dark blue colour from anthocyanins, an antioxidant that protects your cells from damage.

3. Hydration hero. Eighty per cent of a blueberry’s content is water. In addition to quenching your thirst, they’re a delicious way to add flavour to a glass of H2O.

4. Light & lovely. With just 243kJ (58cal) in a punnet of blueberries, tucking into this fruit is a lighter way to satisfy your sweet tooth.

5. Kitchen wizard. Fresh or frozen blueberries can be added to all kinds of dishes, from a brekkie bowl of muesli and yoghurt to smoothies and healthier baked desserts.
