3. blueberries
Blueberries are one of the top fruits rich in
antioxidants. They have a pleasingly sweet
taste and are relatively low in calories and
glycemic index. Research suggests that they
are positively suitable for blood sugar
control. The fiber in the fruit forms a gel in
the gut that can slow down the release of
glucose into the bloodstream. They also
contain specific phytonutrients that may
block sugar from being absorbed through the
gut wall and into the bloodstream.
Additionally, research suggests that
blueberries help protect the heart, lowering
bad cholesterol and slowing

4. Papaya
Low in calories and full of nutrition, papaya has more
vitamin C than an orange. It’s loaded with vitamin A,
potassium, folate, and fiber. It also contains lutein and
zeaxanthin, substances that help protect your eyes
from age-related blindness. It helps in the prevention
of atherosclerosis, diabetes, and heart disease. It also
contains folic acid, which is needed for the conversion
of a substance called homocysteine. If left
unconverted, homocysteine can directly damage blood
vessel walls, and if levels get too high, it is considered
a significant risk factor to heart attack and strokes.
The antioxidants in papaya fight the cholesterol
present in the blood and prevent it from forming
plaques that clog the arteries. Apart from that, the rich
fiber content of the fruit breaks down toxic substances
into easily absorbable amino acids, reducing the
chances of heart stroke.

5. Grapes
The tiny bulbs are one of the world’s
oldest and most abundant healthiest
fruits. According to research, grapes
may also have a favorable effect on
blood lipids, decrease inflammation,
and reduce blood pressure. They are
also a great source of potassium,
which helps prevent muscle cramps.
Just don’t share them—or these
other foods—with your dog; they
can be toxic.

6. Pomegranates
Pomegranate seeds and juice-filled
compartments are phytonutrient
giants, with two to three times as
much antioxidant activity as green
tea or red wine. Not surprisingly,
research suggests they can help
protect against cancer, lower blood
pressure, improve cholesterol levels,
and improve cognitive function. In
one small study, a group of older
subjects who drank 8 ounces of
pomegranate juice daily for four
weeks scored higher on memory
tests than a control group. One
downside: They’re not the most
accessible fruit to eat.
