Healthy colon love blueberries

Help keep your colon healthy and happy with a bowlful berries, specially blueberries. Research shows that there's something in these blue beauties that seems to quell the kind of gastrointestinal (GI) tract inflammation that's associated with colon disease.

A Real Colon Cooler
Because of the positive impact that the blueberry hulls had on colon tissue in a small animal study, researchers suspect that the berries could affect colon health favorably, reducing the risk of diseases that are characterized by inflammation, such as ulcerative colitis. Inflammation-induced damage to epithelial cells lining the GI tract is a leading cause of ulcerative colitis.

Be a Pro with Berries
Interestingly, the blueberries' soothing effects seemed to be magnified by probiotics (think yogurt). So if you're a fruit-and-yogurt nut, you may be on to something. Rye bran with probiotics seemed to help calm gut inflammation as well. But here's one tried-and-true strategy for protecting your colon.
