Lean Aging Wellness

It is a fallacy to believe you can eat whatever you want just because you exercised. Especially in the early stages of your weight loss journey.

Blueberries are a Younger You Longevity superfood. Why?

They are rich sources of DNA methylation-supportive nutrients (aka epinutrients), such as anthocyanins, chlorogenic acid, ellagic acid, and quercetin.

Quercetin, for example, is a senolytic compound, meaning it wards off aging. And it helps optimize genetic expression. Found in many vegetables & fruits, quercetin is known for its antihistamine properties and can also help lower cholesterol as well as protect against viruses.

Another bonus for berries - they’re sweet while still being low-sugar and low-glycemic, making them a natural fit for the Younger You program.

Luckily most berries aren’t a hard sell—they are delicious on their own, especially when they are in season!

When they’re not in season, frozen wild or organic versions are great additions to smoothies and Younger You–approved grain-free baked goods, like our popular Blueberry Beet Scones 😋 (recipe is in the Younger You book).
