• Each tablet contains 60 mg of Bilberry Fruit extract guaranteed to provide a minimum of 25% (20 mg) Anthocyanosides = 15 mg

• Bilberry provides support for eye health

• Anthocyanosides support & protect collagen structures in the blood vessels of the eyes, assuring strong, healthy capillaries that carry vital nutrients to eye muscles & nerves. There are four primary factors which cause capillaries to become weak:

• Abnormally high estrogen levels in females (Inv Oph 1994; 35; Arvo Abstracts).
• Prolonged and elevated adrenal (stress) hormone levels.
• Elevated blood sugar levels (Inv Oph 1980; 19: 168; J Ocular Pharm 1995;11: 469-87) 4.
• Lack of vitamin C and bioflavonoids (Brit Med J 1975; 3: 205-08; Ophthalmologica 1966; 152: 109-17; J Allergy 1950; 21: 133-47). Control of these factors may prevent edema (swelling), hemorrhage and development of new undesired blood vessels (neovascularization).

• Anthocyanidins found in bilberry fruits may also be useful for people with vision problems. Anthocyanidins boost the production of rhodopsin, a pigment that improves night vision and helps the eye adapt to light changes. During World War II, British fighter pilots reported that bilberries improved their nighttime vision and helped them quickly adjust to darkness.

• Today, it is believed that anthocyanidins may help to protect the retina, the nerve layer that lines the back of the eye and sends nerve impulses to the visual areas of the brain. Studies conducted in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s suggest that the anthocyanidins contained in bilberry fruit preparations improve symptoms of a variety of visual disturbances including nearsightedness, cataracts, and macular degeneration
