What Is Blueberry Leaf Extract?

Derived from the leaves of Vaccinium corymbosum, blueberry leaf extract offers a concentrated source of chlorogenic acid. This compound has a high Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) value, which means it effectively neutralises free radicals. The leaves pack a different nutritional punch compared to the berries themselves, providing a unique antioxidant profile in a convenient capsule form.

How Does Blueberry Leaf Extract Support Health?

Antioxidants play a vital role in defending the body’s cells from oxidative stress, a process that can contribute to ageing and many health issues. The chlorogenic acid in blueberry leaf extract helps protect cells from this kind of damage. As a result, the extract is traditionally valued for supporting normal vision and cognitive function. Although research is still evolving, early studies on the active compounds in blueberry leaves support these traditional use.

How to Incorporate Blueberry Leaf Extract Into Your Routine

Take one capsule each day with water and a meal for best absorption. A bottle of 90 capsules offers a three-month supply. Before beginning any new supplement regimen, it is wise to consult your doctor or a qualified health care professional, particularly if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or on any medication. Keep the bottle in a cool, dry spot, out of direct sunlight.
