The benefits of super food like blood oranges and blue berries

The benefits of super food like blood oranges and blue berries other super foods are immense.  You cannot do better for yourself and your body than to add these to your diet and supplement regiment. Not only are the two examples that I am bringing excellent but there will be more articles in the future for you to take advantage of. The blood orange for instance is loaded with vitamins and nutrients it even contains flavanol antioxidants. Blood oranges' red pigment, anthocyanin, is an antioxidant. Blood oranges may also diminish the risk of heart disease, some types of cancer, and LDL cholesterol accumulation. Additionally, they may reduce the risk of cataracts, and aid in the body's healing process. Blood oranges, like all citrus fruits, are a great source of vitamin C; an average orange provides 130% of the FDA's recommended daily intake. It also provides 16% of the recommended daily intake of dietary fiber. Oranges can also be a valuable source of foliate and calcium. Blueberries contain the largest amounts per capita of antioxidants of any berry. They are easy to mix in with you yogurt or the morning shake and well worth the benefit. There are many products that contain blueberries in then but I would suggest that you read the labeling and make sure that the ingredients are what they say they are.
