Blueberry Makes You Feel Full

February 27, 2008: 12:00 AM EST
Blueberry extract is being looked at as a weight management ingredient, following tests on rats. New Zealand and US researchers say that rats fed the extract gained up to 10 percent less body weight than those not given the extract. In particular, blood antioxidant levels increased significantly, says the report in Food Chemistry. The researchers say that the extract’s effects are linked to the feeling of satiety. Other recent US research reported that purified forms of extracted anthocyanins from berries may decrease obesity, but the whole fruit doesn't produce the same benefits.
