Anthocyanidins have been found to be very effective for a
variety of health conditions.
Effect on Nervous System: 
The human brain is prone to
oxidative damages. Peroxynitrite nitration caused by tyrosine residues present
in enzymes and proteins are responsible for brain damage. Nerve
receptor sites are blocked by nitrated tyrosine. Active ingredient pelargonidin
in Anthocyanidin prevent the nitration of tyrosine and
restrict occurrence of any neurological damage caused to the nervous system.
Effect on Blood Vessels: 
Anthocyanidin can prevent atherosclerosis in large blood
vessels. It can prevent the oxidation of low density lipoproteins in the blood
vessels. Anthocyanidins present in bilberries are stronger
antioxidants that vitamin C or even BHT (used as preservative). Anthocyanidins are also very effective in reducing stress on
the blood vessels. Micro-capillary integrity is maintained by Anthocyanidins. The capillary walls are
stabilized by Anthocyanidins. It is very effective in
fighting "ischemia-reperfusion". In this condition, reduced oxygen supply creates oxidants that cause the white
blood cells to stick to the capillary walls and increase the wall permeability
which further causes capillary damage. This condition can be improved by taking
fruits with high Anthocyanidin content.
Effect on Diabetes:
Diabetes retinopathy can
cause severe vision loss or even blindness.
It occurs when the body itself
tries to repair damaged capillaries, but in order to do so it produces excess
of proteins. Anthocyanidins prevent leaking along with abnormal protein
proliferation.
Effect on Eyesight: 
Regular consumption of
fruits and vegetables rich in Anthocyanidins improves night-vision.
