NOW Foods Bilberry Complex

NOW Foods Bilberry Complex uses the dried fruit and leaves of this plant to create this amazing herbal product! Bilberry (Vaccinium myrtilus) is the fruit of a small shrub related to blueberry growing in cool, temperate climates. It has been used by herbalists for centuries, and modern scientific studies have indicated that Bilberry possesses powerful free radical scavenging properties. NOW Bilberry Complex is a standardized Bilberry Extract with 25% Anthocyanins and is completed with Carrot Powder and Citrus Bioflavonoids. Bilberry has traditionally been used to treat conditions such as diarrhea and scurvy. Recently, the fruit has been used to treat a wide range of conditions such as diarrhea, menstrual cramps, eye problems, varicose veins, and circulatory problems such as venous insufficiency (a condition in which the veins do not efficiently return blood from the legs to the heart). The leaf is used for managing conditions such as diabetes.
