Study finds superfruit aids in body fat burning.

Eating 25 grams of freeze-dried blueberries every day can improve athletic performance and burn more body fat while exercising, according to a new study. Blueberries have high levels of an antioxidant called anthocyanin, which recent studies have suggested may increase fat oxidation. The study found that fat oxidation rates increased by 19.7% after cycling for 20 minutes, 43.2% after 30 minutes and 31.1% at 40 minutes. Blueberries could also help muscles retain their glycogen supplies, allowing the body to exercise for longer and perform better.
