(Vaccinium myrtillus) Bilberry extract was first studied after British pilots in WWII consumed Bilberry fruit to enhance their night vision. Compounds in Bilberry fruit called anthocyanosides aid in the capillary resistance and help protect them from damage by free radicals. Anthocyanosides may improve night vision and adjustment to darkness.† Bilberry, a relative of the blueberry, belongs to the heath family. It is a small shrub with sweet black berries, which grows in the heaths and woods of northern Europe and in the Rocky Mountains of the U.S. During WWII, pilots in the British Royal Air Force reported improved night vision after eating bilberry jam. That led scientists to later research the berries for their effects on vision. Bilberry can be recommended as part of a daily regimen for Eye Health, Longevity, Women 65+, Men 51 - 65.
