What is eyebright?

Eyebright (Euphrasia officinalis) is an herb that commonly grows in Europe, Asia, and North America. It’s 2–8 inches (5–20 cm) tall and only blooms for a few months toward the end of its growing season.

Eyebright grows well in poor soil and — being a semi-parasitic plant — gets some of its water and nutrients from the roots of nearby plants.

Its stems, leaves, and flowers are used in traditional herbal medicine, including as a tea and dietary supplements.

Natural Extracts, Eyebright Extract is also used in homeopathy, a form of natural medicine that uses extremely diluted substances for treatments.

Main function:

1.May relieve eye irritation

It is used in Nutrient supplements for eye health. The common name of Eyebright refers to its traditional use for treating eye problems in animals and people. Eye health is also one of the few uses of the herb that has been studied — though research is limited.

2. Support skin health for food additive. In a test-tube study, Eyebright helped prevent sun damage to skin cells by combating unstable molecules called free radicals. This type of damage contributes to wrinkles and increases skin cancer risk .

3. Lower blood sugar. When rats with diabetes were given an oral extract made from Eyebright leaves, their fasting blood sugar decreased by 34% within 2 hours. It had no effect on the blood sugar of rats without diabetes.

4. Soothe colds and coughs. Traditionally, eyebright has been used to treat inflammation from colds, coughs, and sinus infections. Though not studied for this purpose, eyebright contains natural anti-inflammatory agents .

5. Fight harmful bacteria. Test-tube studies suggest that plant compounds in Eyebright may inhibit the growth of certain bacteria including Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae, which are involved in eye infections.

6. Protect the liver. Animal and test-tube studies suggest that Aucubin, a plant compound in Eyebright, may protect the liver against damage from free radicals, certain toxins, and viruses.
