Effect of blueberry consumption on regulatory lymphocyte phenotypes and NK cell functional activity in middle-aged and older adults with overweight or obesity: a randomized controlled trial.

Abstract excerpt

Background: Age-related changes in immune regulation and innate immune responses may be influenced by chronic low-grade inflammation associated with adiposity. Blueberries, rich in anthocyanins, may modulate inflammatory responses through effects on oxidative stress and phenolic metabolites; however, evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) remains limited. We evaluated whether daily blueberry...
