that eating 1 cup of blueberries a day will boost belly fat loss by up to 12%, according to E. Mitchell Seymour, research scientist at the University of Michigan Cardiovascular Center.  “Blueberries activate a gene that is responsible for burning belly fat while also turning down a gene that stores fat.”

As an added bonus, the same study shows that  blueberries lower triglyceride and cholesterol levels, and help maintain steadier blood sugar levels – all factors in lowering your risk of heart disease and Type 2 diabetes.

Enjoy your Coffee Break!
