Along with being a great source of vitamin C, fiber and antioxidants, blueberries also fight belly fat. In one University of Michigan study, a group of rats bred to be obesity-prone were fed blueberry powder as part of a low-fat diet and, after 90 days, had less abdominal fat, lower body weight and lower percentage of body fat than at the beginning of the study. Next time those hunger pangs kick in, grab a handful of blueberries and feel the extra pounds start to melt away.
