Our guide to Bilberry
Bilberry is a fruit that native to Europe. In the middle ages, Bilberry was used for various medical practices including use as an antiseptic, diarrhea, and hemorrhoids. Bilberry is a natural mixture of phyto-chemical glycosides called Cyanidin, Delphinidin and Malvidin. Today, it is a well known anti oxidant and is generally used to treat various circulatory ailments.
As an anti oxidant bilberry is great in the defense against cell damaging agents called free radicals. Free radicals occur naturally in the body and are most commonly produced from simple oxygen exposure. An other common cause of free radical formation is exposure to carbon monoxide from such things as pollution and cigarette smoke. Anti oxidants remove free radicals from the body and help keep cells healthy. Too many
free radicals can cause mutation of cells, which can lead to such things as cancer.
Using bilberry with other anti oxidants such as vitamin C and E and performing regular exercise can help keep your body purged of free radicals and may drastically help reduce the risk of such mutations.
Bilberry is also commonly used for the treatment of eye ailments. By relaxing the capillaries in the eyes, blood more readily flows and produces great benefits. Bilberry is a great source for keeping the body healthy for years to come.
