Benefits of Blueberries in Your Dog's Diet
· Updated
Blueberries are not only a wonderful snack for your pup (frozen or fresh) but they are also considered a superfood for humans and dogs alike! There are actually more than two dozen different types of blueberries worldwide. Who knew!?
Blueberries are low in calories, beneficial for supporting joint health and maintaining healthy bones and contain high amounts of vitamin C, fiber, and phytochemicals, which are naturally occurring chemical compounds found in plants. Antioxidants found in blueberries have healing compounds for cellular and molecular damage in dogs.
These delicious fruits contain important minerals like iron, potassium, and manganese; small but mighty! Studies have even shown that they can reduce the effects of brain aging, which is helpful for our beloved pets entering into their golden years.
