About the Recipe
A light and citrusy jam that’s perfect for hot days and sensitive blood sugar. Blueberries are low-glycemic and full of anthocyanins, which reduce inflammation and improve insulin sensitivity. Paired with lemon juice and chia seeds, this jam is packed with fiber, vitamin C, and anti-inflammatory power — with no refined sugar. The taste is tangy, subtly sweet, and super refreshing.
