Antioxidant-rich blueberries are well known for their disease-fighting abilities, and now preliminary evidence suggests this nutritional superstar may be useful in reducing stomach fat as well.

In one study, researchers from the University of Michigan found that obese rats fed blueberry-enriched meals lost more abdominal fat than those fed a normal diet. When the researchers combined blueberries with a low-fat diet, the weight loss was even more significant.

Scientists believe the high level of phytochemicals in blueberries may change the way fat and sugar are processed and stored in the body.
