Fun Fact ! One cup of blueberries contains 80 calories, 15 percent daily vitamin C, 11 percent daily fiber and other essential nutrients to boost the immune system. They are certified as a heart-healthy food by the American Heart Association and contain natural compounds that help the brain stay strong.

 I have tried their blueberries and they juicy and crunchy.   They are available in fresh and the freeze dried state. I’m pretty sure you will ask which one is better. In terms of antioxidant value and fibre , both are same according to the Health and Safety Fund of North America.
