Recent findings from Oregon State University researchers tout the immunity power of blueberries and red grapes – total powerhouses! The resveratrol in red grapes and the pterostilbene in blueberries (called stilbenoids) work together with Vitamin D to raise immunity toward illness.

Perfect for smoothies, salads and oatmeal, try to incorporate some of these into your menu, and give yourself an added boost for a healthier you!
