The Journal of Agricultural Food Chemistry published results of a study titled “Oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC*) and phenolic anthocyanin concentrations in fruit and LEAF TISSUES of highbush blueberry.” They discovered that Blueberry leaf is loaded with 31 times more anthocyanins and antioxidant than the blueberry fruit itself. Studies published on the health benefits of Blueberry Leaf found the following in their antioxidant levels:

  • Blueberry FRUIT contains: 15.9 ORAC Antioxidant Levels
  • Blueberry LEAF contains: 490.0 ORAC Antioxidant Levels

Clinical trials have shown that Blueberry Leaf may be capable of benefiting:

  1. Lowers blood sugar on an average of 26%.*
  2. Contains excellent anti-inflammatory properties.*

  9. Lowers Blood Pressure. Blueberry Leaf neutralizes free radicals that are associated with increased risk of high blood pressure.*
  10. Reduces Inflammation related to cardiovascular disease.*
  11. Hepatitis C. Blueberry Leaf may help fight hepatitis C, according to a new study. Researchers found that extremely high levels of the antioxidant proanthocyanidins are found to block the replication of the hepatitis C virus. A highly infectious disease, hepatitis attacks the liver and can lead to liver cancer, liver failure or cirrhosis (a potentially fatal scarring of the liver).*
    Eyesight. The flavonoid in Blueberry Leaf is also used to strengthen the capillaries in the eyes and is said to decrease eyestrain and improve eyesight. Cataracts and glaucoma, ulcers, multiple sclerosis, chronic fatigue syndrome, and diarrhea.*
