One of the most powerful antioxidants
Bilberries are said to improve night vision. They also strengthen blood vessels, improve circulation and are known to be useful against varicose veins.
Bilberry grows in northern Europe, Canada, and the United States. The ripe berries are primarily used in modern herbal extracts. Bilberry berries and leaves are used for herbal medicines.
The berries contain compounds called anthocyanosides, which are known to strengthen blood vessels and improve circulation, and can be useful in treating eye disorders, such as diabetic retinopathy.
During World War II, it is said that British fighter pilots ate bilberries before going on nightly bombing raids. As a result, their night vision improved.

How does Bilberry extract tablets work?
• Anthocyanosides are the compounds in bilberry, which help build stronger capillaries and improve circulation to all areas of the body.
• Anthocyanosides also reduce the stickiness of blood platelets, keeping them from causing blood clots.
• Anthocyanosides help increase production of rhodopsin, a pigment that improves night
vision and helps the eye adapt to light changes.
• Bilberry leaves are high in chromium, which help control blood sugar levels in people with diabetes
• Dried bilberries are high in tannin and pectin, which have an astringent action that controls the inflammation that causes diarrhoea.
