For several decades, anthocyanoside-rich standardized extracts from bilberry (often standardized at 25%) have been studied for their potential health effects on various vision, microcirculation, and vascular-related conditions.† Bilberry extract reduces capillary fragility reducing vessel overgrowth through its ability to inhibit the growth of new blood vessels.† This appears to be a unique property of bilberry compared to most other anthocyanoside-containing fruit-derived extracts. Studies show that bilberry’s anthocyanins promote human health by fortifying blood vessel walls. This helps improve blood flow to the tiny blood vessels that keep eyes healthy, as well as to larger blood vessels that help maintain optimal circulation throughout the body.† Furthermore, these phytochemicals strengthen collagen, an essential component of the structure of skin, bone, cartilage, and other connective tissues.† Red grape skin extract provides an added supply of anthocyanidins, and along with citrus bioflavonoid complex, helps support the integrity of collagen-containing structures.†
