EASY BLUEBERRY CRUMBLE

EASY BLUEBERRY CRUMBLE 

Most of us know about the superior benefits of consuming blueberries for healthy weight loss, however, I had no idea of the potent ‘anti aging; properties, this tasty blue berry contained! 

Some resent research demonstrated how blueberries contain a substance identified as Pterostilbene, which have shown to have significant ‘anti aging’ properties.

To get a little ‘geeky’ – The mechanism of action is though the modulation of the sirtuins pathway.

Anti-aging sirtuin molecules regulate DNA repair, and help to maintain telomere length – an important longevity factor. 1. 

SO, I decided to write about it and include an easy- to-make, delicious blueberry crumble recipe to help keep you at your optimal weight, look and feel younger too!
