Eating blueberries earlier in life could ease allergies, strengthen immunity, new study finds

Senior author Minghua Tang, an associate professor of pediatrics at the University of Colorado Anschutz School of Medicine’s Section of Nutrition, said the study supports the idea that blueberries offer meaningful health benefits. “Just a few blueberries a day could make a difference in supporting long-term health,” Tang said in a statement. “We view infancy as a critical window of opportunity and what we introduce during this time can have lasting effects as children grow.”
