Beat bladder infections with blueberries

Eating 1 cup of blueberries daily, whether you opt for them fresh, frozen or in
juice form, can cut your risk of a urinary tract infection (UTIs) by 60 percent,
according to researchers at New Jersey’s Rutgers University. That's because
blueberries are loaded with tannins, plant compounds that wrap around
problem-causing bacteria in the bladder, so they can’t get a toehold and

create an infection, explains Amy Howell, Ph.D. a scientist at Rutgers
University.
