About this supplement
Natural Factors HerbalFactors Bilberry combines a standardized bilberry extract, guaranteed to contain 25% anthocyanidins, with a 5:1 bilberry fruit powder in each capsule. Bilberry is the European cousin of the blueberry, and its anthocyanidins are the flavonoids that give the fruit its deep colour and its antioxidant activity.
Bilberry has a long history of use for the eyes, and it is traditionally used in herbal medicine to help support vision and to help the eyes adjust to the dark after bright light. It is also a source of antioxidants for the maintenance of good health. The capsule is gelatin, with no other fillers.

Highlights
HerbalFactors standardized bilberry extract guarantees 25% anthocyanidins. These potent antioxidants are widely used for vascular and eye health. In particular bilberry improves visual acuity, helps with glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy, and reduces eye strain. It also supports collagen formation and helps prevent the oxidation of LDL cholesterol.
Bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus) is the European cousin to the blueberry and contains active ingredients that support vision. It was frequently used by World War II RAF pilots to enhance night vision.
Studies with bilberry show that it helps eyes adapt to the dark, especially after prolonged exposure to bright light and improves visual acuity in dim light. The active ingredients in bilberry, anthocyanosides, are a group of flavonoids that increase the production and integrity of collagen, a protein that forms connective tissue in the body. Bilberry is also used to treat artery, vein and capillary disorders. Bilberry extract has become the leading herbal prescription for the maintenance of healthy vision and for the treatment of many eye diseases.
