Blueberries are a water-rich fruit that provides carbohydrate, vitamin C, manganese, and anthocyanin polyphenols. Anthocyanin-rich foods are being studied for effects on vascular function and exercise recovery, but blueberries should not be called the universal antioxidant 'leader,' and recovery findings remain mixed. Choose dry, firm berries without mold; refrigerate promptly and do not wash until just before eating, because added surface moisture encourages spoilage.

Interesting fact
Anthocyanins are pigments, not a force field
Anthocyanins give blueberries their blue-purple color. After eating, they and their metabolites interact with biological signaling pathways; they do not simply circulate as direct scavengers that erase all exercise-generated free radicals. Cold storage and freezing preserve berries well, while prolonged warm storage and processing can reduce anthocyanin content.
