Bilberry, a small, dark-purple fruit, is native to Europe and closely related to the blueberry. Known for its slightly tart flavor, it has been a staple in European diets and traditional medicine for centuries. Commonly used in jams, desserts, and herbal teas, bilberries are rich in nutrients and antioxidants, including vitamins C and E, manganese, and anthocyanins, which give them their deep color. These compounds are associated with eye health, improved circulation, and reducing inflammation. Bilberries are also a good source of dietary fiber, aiding digestion. However, excessive consumption may lead to mild gastrointestinal discomfort for sensitive individuals. Fresh or dried, bilberries provide a versatile, nutrient-packed option for enhancing meals or snacks while supporting overall health.
