The benefits of blueberries are good for the eyes, and the term anthocyanin, the main ingredient that brings them, has become widely known. Anthocyanins are one of the polyphenols with antioxidants, but they are said to promote the resynthesis of a pigment called rhodopsin in the retina. Recent studies have also revealed the various benefits of blueberries. Researchers in the United States have announced that blueberries improve various symptoms of metabolic syndrome. Blueberries have the potential to be effective for the first time in the symptoms that are always problematic in metabolic syndrome, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and hyperlipidemia treatments. Please bring blueberries that are good for your eyes and body to your daily companion.
