How to Consume:

Consuming blueberry juice can be an effective treatment to prevent UTIs.

14. Eye Care:

Blueberries have flavonoids called anthocyanins which improve binocular vision. The vasoactive properties of anthocyanins improve blood circulation and better vision by dilating the eye muscles’ blood capillaries (14). According to researchers, blueberries improve binocular vision significantly, yet they have a negligible impact on night vision.

Benefits Of Blueberries For Skin:

Blueberries have essential nutrients like vitamin C that can effectively treat skin issues and give you a glowing and bright surface.

15. Heals Wounds:

High levels of free radicles can be found in your body when your skin is damaged. Blueberries have high antioxidants and vitamins K and C that support wound healing efficiently (15). Damaged skin has free radicles that outnumber antioxidants which might cause inflammation or oxidative stress. Blueberries potentially speed up the healing process with their high antioxidant content (16).

Caution: Make sure not to apply blueberries directly on open cuts or burns since it may lead to infections.

16. May Help With Psoriasis and Eczema:

Some of the inflammatory conditions that cause discolored and itchy patches, called psoriasis and eczema, have lower antioxidant levels (17). The antioxidants present in blueberries lower oxidative stress by reducing psoriasis and eczema flare-ups, although more thorough research is needed (18).

17. Fighting Acne:

Salicylic acid has a salt called salicylates present in a high concentration of salicylates present in blueberries. Salicylic acid is a commonly used ingredient in many beauty products that act against acne-causing bacteria. This is an effective treatment for acne since blueberries have this salt in high amounts (19).
