Bilberries have been used as a food for many centuries and are valued for
their taste and high nutritional content. In WWII, British Royal Air Force
pilots noticed that their night vision seemed to improve after consuming
bilberries or bilberry preserve, sparking a renewed interest in the medicinal
properties of the fruit.
Mechanism of Action
Bilberry has been used
for centuries for problems relating to circulation. Bilberry helps to strengthen
capillary walls due to the presence of a group of bioflavonoids, called
anthocyanosides, found in the plant. The anthocyanadins are of specific benefit
to the health of the eyes, as they can protect the capillaries of the eyes from
damage. Bilberry is a rich source of antioxidants, assisting in decreasing the
risk of cell damage attributed to free radicals. Free radicals have been
implicated in the development and progression of cataracts and other eye
conditions.
