Purple Foods Promote Health and Anti-Aging
Purple Foods Promote Health and Anti-AgingPurple fruits and vegetables, including acai and blueberries, contain important nutrients that have shown many health benefits including anti-aging. These purple antioxidants, called anthocyanins, have been shown to protect the heart and vision, promote mental focus, and prevent oxidative stress.

Research has indicated that purple foods may provide a cure for cancer.
