Berries, like blueberries and lingonberries, contain high amounts of polyphenols that act as antioxidants and have potential benefits for brain aging and neurodegenerative disorders. Several studies have shown the beneficial effects of berries in cell and in vivo models of neurodegenerative disease. This review explores the metabolic mechanisms that plants and animals have developed to combat reactive oxygen species, the bioavailability of these compounds in mammals, and the neuroprotective abilities of berries and polyphenols. The researchers found that the leaves of blueberries and lingonberries have a higher antioxidant capacity than the fruits and have demonstrated neuroprotective effects in cellular and animal models.
