Blueberry extract is rich in anthocyanins, a class of flavonoid antioxidants that give blueberries their deep color. Research suggests these compounds may cross the blood-brain barrier and support brain health by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation in neural tissue.

What dosage of Blueberry Extract has been used in studies?

Cognitive studies have used the equivalent of approximately 1 to 2 cups of fresh blueberries daily, or 500 mg to 1,000 mg of concentrated extract standardized for anthocyanin content. Study durations have ranged from 6 to 24 weeks. Consult your healthcare provider.

What are the potential side effects of Blueberry Extract?

Blueberry extract is generally well tolerated with few reported side effects. Mild gastrointestinal discomfort is possible at high doses. Blueberries contain vitamin K, which may interact with blood-thinning medications. Consult your healthcare provider if you take anticoagulants.

About

Blueberry anthocyanins cross the blood-brain barrier and accumulate in hippocampal and cortical regions. Multiple RCTs in older adults show memory improvements through CREB/BDNF pathway activation and reduced neuroinflammation.

How It Works

Anthocyanin polyphenols cross the BBB and accumulate in brain regions; activate CREB/BDNF signaling pathways; reduce neuroinflammation via NF-kB inhibition; enhance cerebral blood flow and neurovascular coupling.
