Re: Re:Blueberries good for you.. of course we knew that

Perhaps one hint is the recent study posted on breast cancer. Five servings of fruits and veggies a day were a good thing. More did not make things better (although there was no indication that more was harmful).

Perhaps someone can dig up that post (I believe it was just posted in the last couple of weeks).

Subject: [ ] Re:Blueberries good for you.. of course we knew that

Bill posted a study, of which the conclusion is that pterostilbene, a compount present in blueberries, is of great interest in the prevention of colon cancer.

I have blueberries about two days out of three, limiting them to a little over 100 grams each time with the assumption that much of a good thing can be bad. But I really have no idea of what an optimal dose could be. Does anyone have an idea? I eat them together with fruits and straw- or raspberries.
