“…According to Luo et al [ 168 ], resveratrol (2.5, 12.5 µmol/L) improved insulin release from INS-1 cells by disrupting the SIRT1-uncoupling protein-2 (UCP2) axis. In another study, the effects of blueberry anthocyanin extract (5 or 10% by oral gavage: 10 mL/kg/day) were evaluated in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats, for 9 weeks [ 169 ]. SIRT1 expression, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione (GSH) activities were enhanced.…”

Nowadays, it is largely accepted that the daily intake of fruits, vegetables, herbal products and derivatives is an added value in promoting human health, given their capacity to counteract oxidative stress markers and suppress uncontrolled pro-inflammatory responses. Given that, natural-based products seem to be a promising strategy to attenuate, or even mitigate, the development of chronic diseases, such as diabetes, and to boost the immune system. Among fruits, cherries and blueberries are nutrient-dense fruits that have been a target of many studies and interest given their richness in phenolic compounds and notable biological potential. In fact, research has already demonstrated that these fruits can be considered functional foods, and hence, their use in functional beverages, whose popularity is increasing worldwide, is not surprising and seem to be a promising and useful strategy. Therefore, the present review reinforces the idea that cherries and blueberries can be incorporated into new pharmaceutical products, smart foods, functional beverages, and nutraceuticals and be effective in preventing and/or treating diseases mediated by inflammatory mediators, reactive species, and free radicals.
