Bilberry Liquid Extract, derived from Vaccinium myrtillus, offers a safe and natural way to enhance the strength and function of the visual and vascular systems. Bilberry extract contains anthocyanidins with visual and vascular enhancing properties, reduces visual fatigue, and improves light to dark adjustment through its affinity for the rhodopsin-opsin system, the pigment system which mediates both light and dark vision and visual adaptation to dimly lit spaces.*

• Protects Tissue Integrity within the Eyes*
• Promotes Visual Acuity*
• Anti-Oxidant Support for Healthy Vision*
• Rich in Several Plant Flavonoids*
• Powerful Free-Radical Quencher*

Bilberry has potent antioxidant activity, promoting the retina's own enzymatic antioxidant defenses. In the vascular system the anthocyanidin extract supports the integrity of vascular walls by increasing vitamin C levels within cells, decreasing the permeabilizing effect of certain proteolytic/ lysosomal enzymes, stabilizing cell membranes, and stimulating the synthesis of collagen and connective ground substance tissue.*

Gaia Herbs liquid extracts are prepared using certified organic and ecologically grown plants. Only the most bio-active plants are used and then they are extracted using only certified organic pure grain alcohol and USP grain alcohol. Each product is concentrated to exact specifications of weight to volume ratios or bioactive marker levels. We now carry over 70 products in this line that are 100 % certified organic.
