How do bilberries work for the eyes?Bilberry grows in temperate regions, and its fruit can be eaten directly or used to make desserts, preserves, or beverages. Bilberry leaves also have a long history of being used to treat gastrointestinal ailments. So how does bilberry protect the eyes? 1 Bilberry is believed to have the ability to promote "night vision": Why does bilberry have this effect? Because the "rhodopsin" in our retina can receive light and convert the light into nerve signals to the brain. Studies have shown that bilberry can accelerate the regeneration of rhodopsin and promote visual acuity, which is why bilberry can help us improve our vision. 2. Bilberry can improve eye capillaries: Bilberry may be effective in preventing macular degeneration, thanks to the action of the antioxidants in bilberry (flavonoids of anthocyanins) on capillaries. This anthocyanin is a derivative of the blue, purple or red color pigment in flowers. And at least 15 of them are found in bilberries. This shows that bilberry supplements can effectively bring these ingredients to the part of the body that needs them most: our eyes. Because bilberry can promote rhodopsin and improve the microcirculation of eye capillaries, foreign eye health research scholars have also used bilberry to fight glaucoma, and successfully help patients relieve intraocular pressure. test. |
