Blueberry Honey
On R.J.T Blueberry Park Inc, we have early to late season varieties blueberries planted on our beautiful farm. Therefore, the pollination season starts from April to June. Without bees help, the blueberry production will be reduced. Thus, we set up many bee hives on our farm for pollinating and harvesting honey. You will find thousands of bees working on our farm when you visit us during the blooming season.
Honey is one of nature’s sweet gifts. Honeybees gather nectar from a variety of flowers and place it into the hive’s honeycomb cells. The bees then mix the nectar with enzymes in a special pouch in their bodies, beginning the transformation of nectar into honey. Then these hardy workers evaporate a lot of the nectar’s water to thicken the liquid. When the honey is ready, the bees create a cap of beeswax on top of each cell. With most of the work complete, all we have to do is remove and extract the honey to get the natural goodness.
Since the ancient times, honey has been famous due to its useful benefits. These advantages have been taken into consideration since studies have shown that it has been used by people from generation to generation. Because of its profound advantages, different varieties of honey were discovered and one of these varieties includes the Blueberry Honey which is a type of honey that is produced from a flowering plant with indigo colored berries called Blueberries. Essentially, blueberries itself are known to supplement certain health conditions which is why Blueberry honeys are not only known for its sweet taste but as well as its health benefits.

Blueberry Health Benefits
Health Benefits
In the popular press, blueberries have reached superstar status in terms of their unique health benefits. While we prefer to think of all the World’s Healthiest Foods as rightful superstars, we can understand many of the special accolades being given to this wonderful berry. Most health research on blueberries involves their phytonutrient content. Anthocyanins – the colorful antioxidant pigments that give many foods their wonderful shades of blue, purple, and red – are usually the first phytonutrients to be mentioned in descriptions of blueberries and their amazing health-supportive properties. While it is true anthocyanins are pretty spectacular when it comes to blueberries and their support of our body systems, there are actually a wide variety of health support phytonutrients found in blueberries.
Blueberry Phytonutrients
All of these phytonutrients function both as antioxidants and as anti-inflammatory compounds in the body, and they are responsible for many of the well-documented health benefits we get from regular consumption of blueberries.
- Anthocyanins
- Malvidins
- Delphinidins
- Pelargonidins
- Cyanidins
- Peonidins
- Hydroxycinnamic acids
- Caffeic acids
- Ferulic acids
- Coumaric acids
- Hydroxybenzoic acids
- Gallic acids
- Procatchuic acids
- Flavonols
- Kaempferol
- Quercetin
- Myricetin
- Other phenol-related phytonutrients
- Pterostilbene
- Resveratrol
Whole Body Antioxidant Support
Given the wide variety of antioxidant nutrients present in blueberries, it is not surprising to find research studies showing improved antioxidant defenses in body systems that need special protection from oxidative stress, like the cardiovascular system. But what is surprising about the blueberry research is its whole body relevance. It is not only the cardiovascular system that has been shown to have strengthened antioxidant status following consumption of blueberries. It is virtually every body system studied to date! For example, there is new evidence that damage to muscles following overly taxing exercise can be reduced through consumption of blueberries. There is also evidence that protection of the nervous system from oxidative stress can be accomplished by regular consumption of blueberries. These antioxidant-based protective effects have been shown in older adults at risk of neurodegenerative diseases, as well as in younger healthy adults and middle-aged obese adults. Antioxidant protection of the blood sugar regulatory system has also been demonstrated in blueberry intake studies, as has antioxidant protection of the digestive tract (especially with respect to the colon and its risk of cancer). It’s this whole body antioxidant support that helps blueberries stand out as an amazing antioxidant fruit.
Cardiovascular Benefits
Blueberry support of antioxidant defenses has been especially well documented with respect to the cardiovascular system. It’s the many different pathways for cardio support that are so striking in the blueberry research. In repeated studies of blood composition, blueberry intake (usually in the amount of 1-2 cups per day and over the course of 1-3 months) has been shown to improve blood fat balances, including reduction in total cholesterol, raising of HDL cholesterol, and lowering of triglycerides. At the same time, blueberry intake has been shown to help protect the blood components (like LDL cholesterol) from oxygen damage that could lead to eventual clogging of the blood vessels. Protection has also been shown for the cells lining the blood vessel walls. Connected with this antioxidant protection of blood vessel structures and blood fats is an improved overall antioxidant capacity in the blood itself. Interestingly, the ability of blueberries to increase plasma antioxidant capacity seems to continue as blueberry intake goes up above everyday levels. For example, some studies have shown better total antioxidant capacity when 3 or more cups of blueberries were consumed per day as compared to a daily intake of 1-2 cups.
Recent research has added yet another factor to our understanding of blueberries and cardioprotection. That factor involves an enzyme called nitric oxide synthase (NOS). Most studies on NOS have focused on a form of NOS called inducible NOS, or iNOS. Excess formation of iNOS is generally associated with increased risk of inflammation. However, there is a second form of NOS called endogenous NOS, or eNOS. Increased activity of eNOS is usually associated with better balance in cardiovascular function. Recent studies have shown that daily blueberry intake can result in increased eNOS activity, and this result is viewed as helping to explain some of the unique health benefits of blueberries for the cardiovascular system.
It would be wrong to end a discussion of blueberries and cardiovascular health without talking about blood pressure. In both men and women, and in study participants of many different ages, routine blueberry intake has been shown to support healthy blood pressure. In individuals with high blood pressure, blueberry intake has significantly reduced both systolic and diastolic blood pressures . In individuals with health blood pressure, blueberry intake has been shown to help maintain these healthy pressures.
Cognitive Benefits
One of the most exciting new areas of research on blueberries is the area of cognitive benefits. In one study involving older adults (with an average age of 76 years), 12 weeks of daily blueberry consumption was enough to improve scores on two different tests of cognitive function including memory. While participants in the study consumed blueberries in the form of juice, three-quarters of a pound of blueberries were used to make each cup of juice. As participants consumed between 2 and 2-1/2 cups per day, they actually received a very plentiful amount of berries. The authors of this study were encouraged by the results and suggested that blueberries might turn out to be beneficial not only for improvement of memory, but for slowing down or postponing the onset of other cognitive problems frequently associated with aging.
Lab and animal research studies on blueberry intake suggest that a large part of this cognitive protection is most likely due to nerve cell protection from oxygen damage by blueberries’ vast array of antioxidant nutrients. Nerve cells have a naturally high risk of oxygen damage and they require special antioxidant protection at all times in life. Their ability to send information throughout the body depends on the presence of balanced oxygen metabolism, and that balance cannot be achieved without ample intake of antioxidant nutrients. By lowering the risk of oxidative stress in our nerve cells, blueberries help us maintain smoothly working nerve cells and healthy cognitive function.
Blood Sugar Benefits
People diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and insulin resistance have a special challenge with respect to blood sugar balance. In many cases, people diagnosed with obesity also have a special challenge maintaining a balanced blood sugar level. It’s simply more difficult for these individuals to keep their blood sugar levels from spiking too high (or sometimes also from dropping down too low). Research on blood sugar balance and blueberry intake has been conducted on individuals who have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, or insulin resistance, and the results of this research have been consistent. They have shown that blueberries (along with other berries) have a favourable impact on blood sugar regulation in persons already diagnosed with blood sugar problems.
When compared to other berries, blueberries are not particularly low in terms of their glycemic index (GI) value. Studies show the GI for blueberries falling somewhere in the range of 40-53, with berries like blackberries, raspberries, and strawberries repeatedly scoring closer to 30 than to 40. However, recent studies have shown that blueberries definitely function as a low-GI fruit in terms of their blood sugar impact. In one study on individuals diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, study participants who consumed at least 3 servings of low-GI fruits per day (including blueberries) saw significant improvement in their regulation of blood sugar over a three-month period of time. Their blood levels of glycosylated hemoglobin, or HgA1C were used as the standard of measurement in this study.
The blood sugar benefits of blueberries should not be surprising. Even at 40-53 in terms of glycemic index, blueberries typically fall into the “low-GI” category of foods (usually defined as any food with a GI of 50 or below). They also provide a very good amount of fiber (nearly 4 grams per cup). Most low-GI foods with strong fiber content are foods we can count on to be helpful in blood sugar regulation.
Eye Health
The retina of the eye is a unique place in our body and it is also a place that is at higher than normal risk of oxidative stress. Foods unique in phytonutrient antioxidants are often investigated for their ability to help protect the retina from oxygen damage, and blueberries are no exception! In preliminary studies on laboratory animals, the anthocyanins in blueberry protected the retina from unwanted oxygen damage. Interestingly, they have also been determined to help protect the retina from damage from sunlight. Like the area of cancer protection, we look forward to future research on human eye health and the potential for blueberry intake to help protect the human eye from damage by sunlight and oxidative stress.
Anti-Cancer Benefits
While almost exclusively coming in the form of laboratory studies on human cells or laboratory animal studies, an increasing percentage of the blueberry research is being focused on anti-cancer benefits. Types of cancer already studied with respect to blueberry intake include breast cancer, colon cancer, esophageal cancer, and cancers of the small intestine. We look forward to the results of large-scale human studies on the potential ability of blueberry intake to lower risk of these cancer types.
Blueberry Recipes
Blueberry Sauce
Ingredients:
• 3/4 – 1 cup (150 – 200 grams) granulated white sugar, or to taste
• 2 1/2 teaspoons (8 grams) cornstarch
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 2/3 cup (160 ml) water

Blueberry Jam Tart
Ingredients:
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• ½ cup (100grams) granulated white sugar
• 10 tablespoons (140 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 2 to 3 tablespoons cold water
• ½ teaspoon backing powder
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup RJT Whole Berry Jam
Directions:
1) Pulse flour, confectioners’ sugar, and a pinch of salt in a food processor to combine. Add butter, and process until the mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds. With processor running, add cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until a dough forms (do not process more than 20 seconds).
2) Cut dough in half; shape each half into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 day. Cut 1 disk into 12 pieces; on a lightly floured work surface, flatten each piece into a 2-inch round. Press a round onto bottom and up sides of each cup of a 12-cup nonstick mini-muffin tin. Repeat with remaining disk of dough and second muffin tin. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
3) Once your pastry has chilled, remove one portion from the refrigerator and peel off the top piece of parchment paper. Using about a 2 1/2 inch (6 cm) cookie cutter, cut out rounds of pastry and gently press them into the muffin cups. Then fill each tart shell about two-thirds full with RJT Whole Blueberry jam. Bake for about 12 –14 minutes or until golden brown around the edges. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool.
Makes about 30 – 2 inch (5 cm) Jam Tarts.
Blueberry Fruits Cream Cheese Tart
Ingredients:
Shortbread Crust
• 1 cup (130 grams) all purpose flour
• 1/3 cup (35 grams) confectioners (powdered or icing) sugar
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup (113 grams) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
Filling
• 4 ounces (115 grams) full fat cream cheese, at room temperature
• 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated white sugar
• 2 large eggs, at room temperature
• 2/3 cup (160 ml) cream
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon grated lemon or lime zest (optional)
• 6 ounces (170 grams) fresh berries, washed and patted dry
Directions:
Shortbread Crust
1) You will need either an8 or a 9 inch (20-23 cm) tart pan with a removable bottom.
2) In your food processor, place the flour, sugar, and salt and process to combine. Add the butter and pulse until the pastry just starts to come together and form clumps.
3) Place the pastry in your tart pan and, using your finger tips, evenly press the pastry onto the bottom and up the sides of your pan. Gently pierce the bottom of the crust with the tines of a fork. (This will prevent the pastry crust from puffing up while it bakes.) Cover and place the pastry crust in the freezer for 15 minutes to chill. (This will help prevent the crust from shrinking while it bakes.)
4) Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) and place rack in center of oven. When ready, place the tart pan on a larger baking pan and bake until the crust is golden brown, about 13 -15 minutes.
5) Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool while you make the filling. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees (180 degrees C).
Filling
1) In your food processor (you can also mix the ingredients together in your electric mixer or with a hand mixer) place the cream cheese and process until smooth. Add sugar and process until incorporated. Add the eggs and process until thoroughly combined. Add remaining ingredients and process until well blended and smooth.
2) Carefully pour the filling into the pre-baked tart shell. Arrange the fresh raspberries evenly in the filling and then bake the tart for about 30 – 35 minutes or until the filling is set (test by gently shaking the pan). Transfer tart to wire rack to cool.
Serve warm, at room temperature, or cold. Cover and refrigerate leftovers. Makes about 8 – 10 servings.
Blueberry Frozen Yogurt
Ingredients:
• 3 cups R.J.T frozen blueberries (about 1 1lb)
• 3 Tablespoons lemon juice
• 3/4 cup to 1 cup of sugar (depending on how sweet your blueberries are, and how sweet you want the result to be)
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 1/2 cups full fat plain yogourt (full fat yogourt is preferred, if you use low-fat or non-fat yogourt, substitute 1/4 cup of it with heavy whipping cream)
• 1/2 cup whole milk
Directions:
1) Place the blueberries, lemon juice, sugar, salt, and cinnamon in a medium saucepan. Heat on medium heat, stirring, until all of the sugar has dissolved. While the mixture is heating, use a potato masher to mash up the blueberries. When all of the sugar has dissolved, remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes. If you want a smooth result, you can process the cooled mixture in a food processor, or skip, in which case you’ll have pieces of blueberries which can add flavourful texture to the frozen yogurt.
2) Stir in the yogurt and milk until completely incorporated. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for several hours (or overnight) until completely cold. Process the blueberry yogurt mixture in your ice cream maker according to manufacturer’s instructions (usually about 25 minutes). Serve immediately (it will be soft) or let it firm up a bit by freezing it for several hours.
