News Blueberries Show Promise As Treatment For Post-traumatic Stress Disorder

@Lizio Great! Watch the amounts of blueberries as sometimes it is better to do a handful at meal time or in between meals then all at once. It assist with regulating the regulation.:clown:

Handful at a time sounds ideal for chocolate covered blueberries then!. I don't know, maybe it'll help eh. But frankly if you don't have any kind of social support and help I think that makes a lot more difference. Only so much you can cope with and diet and pills are never going to be the complete answer, So the notion of pop of a pill or fix your diet and it will all be OK is ludicrous. You need emotional support and social support and friends and help and that you can't buy or get on medicare.

I absolutely crave plain blueberries with nothing on them, not frozen though & not cooked (as in a muffin). I could eat mouse-sized proportions @FridayJones .. ;) :wideeyed: :)

Whether or not blueberries have a real impact on PTSD, having a diet that is well balanced and doesn't contain a lot of processed food items isn't going to hurt anyone.

I needed a chuckle - thank you. BTW - I have been eating 1/2 c frozen Maine blueberries with almonds and Greek yogurt for lunch for several years. Um, no discernible difference in this rat. I guess they aren't "medicinal" grade blueberries, but they are organic and way yummo! lol
