Blueberries vs Passion Fruit – Which is Healthier?

Our Verdict

When comparing blueberries to passion fruit, we picked the passion fruit.

Why?

If there’s one thing this fruit is passionate about, it’s delivering nutrients:

In terms of macros, passion fruit has more than 4x the fiber, slightly more carbs, and for what it’s worth, which isn’t much because the numbers in this latter case are small, about 3x the protein (it’s the seeds). In any case, a first-round victory for passion fruit.

In the category of vitamins, blueberries have more of vitamins E and K, while passion fruit has more of vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, C, and choline, winning another round.

Looking at minerals next, blueberries have more zinc, while passion fruit has more calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and selenium, winning its third round in a row.

When it comes to other considerations, blueberries have more polyphenols, winning a round finally.

Adding up the sections shows a clear overall win for passion fruit, but blueberries are great too (especially for the polyphenols and vitamins E and K, of which they are a good source), so by all means enjoy either or both; diversity is good!
