Compound in blueberries may help muscle cells burn excess fathttps://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/09/260903064219.htm
Scientists in Japan have identified a natural compound found in blueberries, grapes, and other berries that may help muscle cells burn excess fat instead of storing it. The compound, pterostilbene, reduced abnormal fat buildup in cultured mouse muscle cells by boosting fat breakdown and helping stabilize a key protein involved in fatty acid metabolism.
