Does Blueberry Powder Help With Moderate blueberry consumption (<1 cup/day equivalent) ma...?

Evidence Summary

Moderate blueberry consumption (<1 cup/day equivalent) may modestly improve net bone calcium retention in postmenopausal women (PMID: 37269909). A low-dose wild blueberry extract (100mg) showed some benefit for episodic memory and systolic blood pressure in older adults over 6 months, though whole powder at 500-1000mg showed less consistent effects (PMID: 29882843). Blueberry supplementation may modulate bile acid composition and gut microbiome in individuals at metabolic risk, though without significant changes in total bile acids (PMID: 36145234).
