Bilberry Extract
- Bilberry extract contains anthocyanidins with visual and vascular enhancing properties.
- Bilberry moderates visual fatigue and supports light to dark adjustment through its affinity for the rhodopsin-opsin system, the pigment system which mediates both light and dark vision and visual adaptation to dimly lit spaces.
- In addition, the extract also has powerful antioxidant activity, promoting the retina's own enzymatic antioxidant defenses.
- In the vascular system the anthocyanidin extract supports the integrity of vascular walls by increasing vitamin C levels within cells, decreasing the permeabilizing effect of certain proteolytic/lysosomal enzymes, stabilizing cell membranes, and stimulating the synthesis of collagen and connective ground substance tissue.
- Bilberry offers a safe and natural way to enhance the strength and function of the visual and vascular systems.
