4 Essential Nutrients
PAINT YOUR PLATE WITH BLUE
Blueberries fit perfectly and colorfully into USDA’s MyPlate recommendation to “make half your plate fruits and vegetables.” The MyPlate website and a mobile app offers tools and quizzes to help you plan, personalize and track a healthy eating routine.
What do you get in every boost of blue? Fiber, vitamin C, vitamin K, manganese and potassium, as a start – all at just 80 calories per cup. Blueberries are also low in sodium and have virtually no fat. It’s a simple, no-stress food you can enjoy any time of day and anywhere. (Blueberries are the perfect, durable travelling berry.)
