In 2011 my New Years Resolution was to eat more blueberries. I liked that goal because if I ate one more blueberry than I did in 2010 then I had succeeded. I averaged about 10 blueberries a day for the entire year with some surprising results. I did not get sick (cold, flu) for the entire year. The only sickness I got was strep throat which I get every year between September and November. It is like a ticking time bomb in my immune system and nothing has ever stopped it. When 2012 started I went with a new resolution which had nothing to do with my health and what do you know, Sickness crept in. After 3 sniffles, sinus, colds I finally realized that I had stopped eating blueberries. Amazing how one little fruit can flood your body with enough antioxidants to keep you healthy all year. I am back on my blueberry regimen and plan to spout the benefits to anyone who will listen.
