What is bilberry extract?

Bilberries are a shrub bearing edible fruit native to Northern Europe and found throughout Eurasia. As a species, it is known as Vaccinium myrtillus. The name bilberry comes from the word bølle, the Danish word for whortleberry appended with ‘berry’. They bear a striking similarity to the North American blueberry, as they belong to the same genus Vaccinium. Bilberries are difficult to cultivate, as they thrive best in acidic and nutrient-poor soil. A significant portion of bilberries collected for sale come from the plentiful wild shrubs that grow on public soil.

Bilberry has had historic uses in traditional European medicine for nearly 1000 years. Reported uses date back as far as the early 12th century. Herbalists and physicians of the 16th century used it for a variety of ailments, including intestinal ailments; infections of the mouth, skin, and urinary tract; gout; and rheumatism. By the 20th century, individuals used bilberry extract as an anti-inflammatory, an anti-diarrheal, a diuretic, a cooling and restorative nutritive tonic, and a coagulator. Herbal remedies called for a strong tea made by steeping one-to-two tablespoons of dried bilberry fruit in five ounces of water for at least 10 minutes.
