Groovy Bee® Freeze-Dried Organic Blueberry Powder 5oz (141g)
Also known as bilberries or star berries, blueberries are tiny, dark blue, edible berries that grow on the Vaccinium myrtillus shrub, which is related to cranberries, huckleberries and gooseberries. As one of the most nutritious and antioxidant-rich fruits in the world, blueberries are a nutritional powerhouse loaded with potent antioxidants an essential vitamins and minerals that can support your overall health and well-being. Since blueberries don't stay fresh for very long, they can be freeze-dried and turned into a fine powder to greatly extend their shelf life and provide a more concentrated source of nutrition.

To help you experience the full nutritional benefits of fresh blueberries in a convenient powder form, the Health Ranger Store is proud to introduce our NEW Groovy Bee® Freeze-Dried Organic Blueberry Powder. Our premium freeze-dried organic blueberry powder is packed with nutrients and has been carefully freeze-dried to retain maximum nutrition.

A versatile and convenient addition to a wide variety of recipes, our freeze-dried organic blueberry powder can easily be added to your favorite smoothies, shakes, superfruit blends and other beverages and recipes. Groovy Bee® Freeze-Dried Organic Blueberry Powder contains no gluten or GMOs and is certified Kosher and organic.

Health benefits of organic blueberries**

Support healthy cognitive function – 
A study from the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry indicated that blueberries contain beneficial phytonutrients and compounds that support optimal brain functions, including memory, learning capacity and motor skills. Furthermore, the anthocyanins and flavonoids in blueberries possess antioxidant properties that can protect your brain from oxidative damage and support healthy cognitive function.

Support healthy cardiovascular function – 
Blueberries can support a healthy heart thanks to their high concentrations of antioxidants and nutrients, such as anthocyanins, magnesium, fiber, potassium, calcium and vitamins B6 and C. A study from the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics indicated that the resveratrol and anthocyanins in blueberries can help maintain healthy cholesterol and blood pressure levels that are already within the normal range.  

Support healthy digestive function – 
Blueberries contain high levels of dietary fiber that can help support healthy digestion and regular bowel movements. Additionally, blueberries are packed with manganese, potassium and zinc – all of which are important
nutrients that help support your digestive system's natural production of digestive enzymes.
 
Support healthy eye function – According to a study that was published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences, blueberries contain plenty of antioxidants that support optimal eye health, such as quercetin, lutein, zeaxanthin, rutin, resveratrol, vitamin C and other potent bioflavonoids and carotenoids.

Support healthy immune function – 
A study that appeared in the journal Advances in Nutrition reported that blueberries contain an abundance of immune-supporting nutrients, such as vitamins A, C and E, as well as numerous other antioxidants that can protect your body against oxidative stress and support your body's natural immune defenses.

Support the growth of healthy, glowing skin – 
Blueberries are packed with vitamin C, anthocyanins and other antioxidants that help protect your skin against damage caused by free radicals. According to a study from the journal Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, the regular consumption of blueberries can support the growth of healthy, radiant skin.

Support the growth of strong and healthy bones – Blueberries contain a wide array of vitamins and minerals that are crucial for the growth and development of strong and healthy bones. Some of these nutrients include calcium, zinc, magnesium, iron, manganese, phosphorus, and vitamin K.

Naturally uplift your mood – 
Like many other brightly-colored berries, blueberries contain high levels of antioxidant flavonoids. According to a study that appeared in the journal Nutrients, the regular consumption of flavonoid-rich blueberries can positively influence your overall mood and feelings.

Support sensible weight management plans – 
Since blueberries are naturally low in sodium, calories and fat but high in fiber, they can make you feel fuller for longer and help curb your appetite. As such, blueberries can be useful in helping you reach your sensible weight management goals, especially when accompanied by a well-balanced diet and regular exercise.

What vitamins and minerals are in organic blueberries?**

As one of the world's most nutritious and antioxidant-rich types of fruits, blueberries contain high levels of essential vitamins and minerals, such as dietary fiber, protein, healthy fats, calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, manganese, phosphorus, choline, selenium, zinc, copper, and vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B6, B9, C, E and K. Additionally, blueberries are rich in potent antioxidants, such as myricetin, quercetin, resveratrol, kaempferol and most importantly, anthocyanins. Low in calories, fat and sodium, but high in nutrients, blueberries are the perfect healthy snack.

Blueberries are particularly known for their high concentrations of whole spectrum vitamin C, which is a powerful antioxidant that supports the healthy functions of your skin, eyes and immune system. Vitamin C is also an essential nutrient that your body needs for natural collagen production.

According to a study that appeared in the Journal of Zhejiang University - Science B, compared to other berries, blueberries have higher antioxidant activity and contain more of the many different types of antioxidants, such as phenols, flavonoids and anthocyanins. Other potent antioxidants that are present in blueberries include quercetin myricetin, procyanidins, pterostilbene, chlorogenic acid, resveratrol and over 15 different anthocyanins, as well as vitamins A and E.

Compared to other blueberry variants, such as cultivated blueberries and Maine blueberries, Nordic wild blueberries, or European blueberries, contain substantially higher levels of anthocyanins. In fact, they can contain up to 33% more anthocyanins and up to 4 times more antioxidants than other blueberry variants. That's why for our premium freeze-dried organic blueberry powder, we use only high-quality, antioxidant-rich Nordic wild blueberries sourced from healthy Vaccinium myrtillus shrubs.
