Bilberry (Vaccinium
Myrtillus)
Bilberry has been valued for centuries as a nutritious food and a wild edible
delicacy. The berries, best known as an edible fruit, are an ancient food in northern
Europe.
In European herbal remedies, bilberry fruit preparations are
now used to enhance poor micro-circulation, including eye conditions such as night-blindness and diabetic
retinopathy.
In France, bilberries have been prescribed since 1945 for
diabetic patients, a major cause of blindness in diabetics.
In an Italian study, bilberry's flavonoids lowered
cholesterol levels in the blood and improved circulation.
In animal studies, bilberry reduced and stabilized blood
sugar levels.
