Cornell University College of Agriculture and Life Sciences Cornell Cooperative Extension: "The Lowdown on Lingonberries." Staph infections are usually obtained by eating bacteria-infested foods and can happen quite easily as food is handled, shipped and processed. The lingonberry ( Vaccinium vitis-idaea L.) is a small, bright red berry that belongs to the same plantfamily ( Ericaceae) as the blueberry and cranberry. This berry grows on a perennial woody shrub that flourishes in cold climates in the Northern hemisphere. People grow and harvest lingonberry in northern American states like Alaska, New York, and Oregon. Lingonberries also grow wild in the Canadian Pacific Northwest, Germany, Greenland, northern Europe, Scandinavia, and other regions.

In a 10-week study in mice prone to intestinal tumors, those fed 10% (by weight) of their high-fat diet as freeze-dried, powdered lingonberries had 60% smaller and 30% fewer tumors than the control group ( 41). Feeding mice on a high-fat diet lingonberries for 11 weeks helped prevent low-grade inflammation and increased numbers of Akkermansia muciniphila, bacteria that help keep your gut lining healthy ( 16, 17). Food & Nutrition Research: "Lingonberries alter the gut microbiota and prevent low-grade inflammation in high-fat diet fed mice."

In Sweden, they are traditionally used as an accompaniment to cured meats such as ham and meatballs. Though further research is needed to confirm eye health benefits of lingonberry extract, a longstanding recommendation for supporting vision is to eat plenty of antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables — which could include lingonberries ( 39). Summary Some concern has been noted regarding liver damage due to the bacteria it can kill in urine, but more studies are needed to confirm this. The bacteria and other microbes in your digestive tract — called your gut microbiota — may be a key factor when it comes to your health. What you eat has a big impact on the makeup of your gut microbiota ( 14, 15). An alternative option may be lingonberry extract supplements, which concentrate the beneficial components.

Kåldomar (stuffed cabbage rolls) are usually served sprinkled with a few whole lingonberries, a side dish of rårörda lingon, boiled potatoes and a syrupy sauce or gravy. Delicious! Read more... Fried herring We have already talked about the anti-inflammatory nature of the lingonberry but besides that, lingonberries may help our oral health in other ways. A study which was published in 2001 discovered that a tannin present in lingonberries could effect a powerful antimicrobial action against two of the bacteria responsible for gum and mouth disease. 6. Cancer protection First of all, get rid of any overly soft or browned berries and wash them thoroughly. Store your lingonberries and lingonberry products in the refrigerator. Lingonberries contain a high level of benzoic acid meaning that they keep well when they are refrigerated. The berry is known by many other names, including bearberry, redberry, partridgeberry, foxberry, cowberry, and Alaskan lowbush cranberry.

Cranberries are a real superfood with many benefits, protection against recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) being one of their most famous health benefits. The anti-UTI effects of cranberries ( Vaccinium macrocarpon) and cranberry juice have been largely attributed to the presence of A-type proanthocyanidins (PACs) in cranberries. These flavanoids have been shown to inhibit the adhesion of Escherichia coli, the main UTI-causing bacterium, to the urinary tract wall. Lingonberry plants prefer to grow on acidic soil with a pH of less than or equal to one (i.e, blueberries). According to very recent research published in the Journal of Nutrition and Metabolism, lingonberries are significantly better than any other type of berries when it comes to countering the adverse effects of high fat diets. Researchers gave mice either a low or high fat diet and also fed them with several types of berry. Protect eye health.Eating fruits that contain high amounts of antioxidants may improve your vision health. Studies suggest that antioxidants can help protect against glaucoma and premature retinopathy, a disease that damages the retina.
