In this talk, Vittoria de Sanctis explores the health benefits of eating a cup of blueberries a day, and how they can improve long-term quality of life. So in other words, pick blueberries, buy blueberries, bake blueberries, think blueberries, and most importantly eat blueberries. Vittoria is a 17 year old Italian-Swiss young lady residing in Zurich. She is very passionate about playing sports, arts, design and spending quality time with family and friends. After she graduates high school next year, she has planned to take a gap year after which she will commence her Fashion Design studies. Speaking at this TEDx event appeals to her due to a strong interest in public speaking and parental encouragement. She chose to discuss the correlation between the nutritional value of blueberries and improved quality of life. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    Victoria humorously argues that eating blueberries can significantly improve health and happiness by providing benefits such as better cognitive function, lower blood pressure, reduced inflammation, and faster workout recovery. She suggests replacing unhealthy habits, like drinking coffee, with eating blueberries to save money and gain health benefits but ultimately advises not to depend solely on blueberries for happiness.
