Blueberries contain high levels of antioxidants. Antioxidants reduce the levels of oxidation in your cells. Oxidation damages cells. A certain type of oxidation (LDL) is associated with cardiovascular disease.
So, antioxidants are good for many systems in the body including the cardiovascular system.

Blueberries may reduce the build-up of "bad" cholesterol that contributes to cardiovascular disease and stroke. It has been reported that blueberries contain pterostilbene, a compound which has the potential to lower cholesterol.
