Zusammenfassung

Anthocyanzubereitungen aus Heidelbeeren haben in den vergangenen 2 Jahren in der Schweiz bei Patienten mit altersabhängiger Makuladegeneration (AMD) eine breite Anwendung zum Zweck der primären und sekundären Prophylaxe gefunden. Humane Studienergebnisse zur Analyse von Sicherheit und Effektivität bei AMD-Patienten liegen bislang nicht vor. Der aktuelle Stand der wissenschaftlichen Literatur zum Problemkreis einer Einnahme von Anthocyanen wird in diesem Review dargestellt.

Abstract

Bilberry extracts containing anthocyanins have become rather popular within the last 2 years among patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in Switzerland as a medication for primary or secondary prophylaxis. So far human study results concerning safety and efficacy in AMD patients are not available. The present state of the scientific literature concerning the use of anthocyanins with relation to AMD will be analysed in this review.
