Summary

This study looks at whether eating wild blueberries every day for a few months can improve blood flow and insulin sensitivity in the brains of older adults (ages 60-75) who are overweight. Researchers will use MRI scans to measure brain function and simple iPad tests to check thinking skills. The goal is to understand how blueberries might protect the brain from age-related decline.
