Here are some ways blueberries can help improve your health:
1) Urinary tract infections
Historically, they have been used as a treatment for bladder and kidney diseases.
Blueberries are perhaps best known for their role in preventing urinary tract infections, especially for those with recurrent infections. The high level of antioxidant proanthocyanidins in blueberries helps stop certain bacteria from adhering to the walls of the urinary tract. In this way, the antioxidant proanthocyanidins in blueberries help prevent infections, as shown by researchers at the A & M Health Science Center College of Medicine in Houston .
2) Cardiovascular Disease
Some evidence suggests that the polyphenols in blueberries may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). This is done by preventing platelet aggregation and reducing blood pressure, through anti-inflammatory mechanisms.
3) Cancer
Research has shown that the nutrients in blueberries may help slow tumor progression and may have a positive impact on prostate, liver, breast, ovarian and colon cancers.
4) Dental
The proanthocyanidins in blueberries may benefit oral health. They do this by preventing bacteria from adhering to teeth, according to researchers at the Center for Oral Biology and the Department of Dentistry at the University of Rochester Medical Center. They also help prevent gum disease.

Vitamin C
Vitamin C is a powerful natural antioxidant. Not only can vitamin C block some of the damage caused by free radicals, but it also improves iron absorption from plant sources, boosts the immune system, and promotes tissue repair.
Fiber intake is associated with significantly lower risks of developing a number of conditions including coronary heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and certain gastrointestinal diseases.
Increased fiber intake has also been shown to reduce blood pressure and cholesterol levels, improve insulin sensitivity, and increase weight loss for obese individuals.
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant that is involved in immune function. It may help prevent or delay the onset of chronic diseases associated with free radicals, such as heart disease, cancer, cataracts, Alzheimer's, and arthritis.
