- What Is Bilberry and What Makes It Different From Blueberries?
Bilberry is a small, dark blue-purple berry closely related to the blueberry. While the two berries are similar, bilberries naturally contain higher concentrations of anthocyanins, the plant pigments responsible for their deep color. - What Are Anthocyanins and Why Are They Important?
Anthocyanins are naturally occurring plant pigments that give bilberries their rich blue-purple color. They belong to a group of compounds called flavonoids and are valued for their antioxidant properties. - What Is the Difference Between Bilberry Extract and Whole Bilberry?
Whole bilberry contains the complete berry, including its naturally occurring nutrients and plant compounds. Bilberry extract is a concentrated form that is often standardized to provide specific levels of anthocyanins, allowing for consistent potency from serving to serving. - What Makes Swanson Extra Strength Bilberry Different From Standard Bilberry Supplements?
Swanson Extra Strength Bilberry features a concentrated bilberry extract standardized to provide consistent levels of anthocyanins, the naturally occurring compounds that give bilberries their deep blue-purple color. By using a standardized extract rather than whole bilberry alone, this formula delivers a reliable source of bilberry's key plant compounds in a convenient capsule. - Is Swanson Extra Strength Bilberry Suitable for Special Diets?
Swanson Extra Strength Bilberry is non-GMO, gluten free, and dairy free. However, it is not suitable for vegan or vegetarian diets because the capsules contain gelatin.
