Q. I’ve heard that blueberries have a beneficial effect on the brain. Can you tell me more about this? Is the research recent and credible?
A. James Joseph, PhD, at Tufts University is a leading neuroscientist and expert on the effects of berries on brain function. He has done a number of studies in both aging rodents and humans demonstrating cognitive benefits from blueberries.
We see this research as highly credible (Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, Feb. 13, 2008). Dr. Joseph recommends frozen berries as an economical way to get the antioxidant potential of this fruit.
