Organic bilberry—or organic Vaccinium myrtillus by its scientific Latin name, is a close relative of the blueberry, but softer and juicier with a darker color that is almost black. The berry’s dark color indicates a high level of antioxidants, touted for fighting off toxins and free radicals in the body. Starwest Botanicals always ensures that the color, flavor and texture of its bulk organic bilberries are of superior quality.
The culinary and medicinal uses of organic Vaccinium myrtillus are many. As a food, organic bilberry can be added to an array of dishes—salads, soups, stews, meat dishes, syrups and jellies. Organic Bilberries can be easily pulverized for using as a powder or in capsules.
Organic bilberry is astringent in quality, associated with helping to constrict inflamed body tissues. Bilberries have long been attributed to improving night vision in folklore and modern times. Organic bilberry has become increasingly coveted for its so-called anti-aging properties.
