Research Supports
Eye Health
NutritioNal researchers have
discovered a range of nutrients that are
essential for eye health. some of the most
essential nutrients that have been shown to
protect and even improve eye function are:
selenium, is a trace mineral that is low
in N.Z. soils and therefore in many of our
foods. researchers believe selenium may
help prevent cataracts, macular degeneration
(the leading cause of impaired vision in older
people) and may also improve dry eyes and
general eye health.
Zinc is a mineral that a large percentage
of the population are low in. Zinc has been
shown to help protect the eyes from the
damaging effects of light as well as slow
vision loss due to macular degeneration.
Vitamin c, citrus Bioflavonoids, Betacarotene
(Pro-vitamin a) and copper have
potent antioxidant ability and help protect
the eyes from damage
lutein and Zeaxanthin are amazing
nutrients that have been shown in landmark
research to not only provide potent eye
protection but may even help reverse
some of the signs of age-related macular
degeneration (aMD).
Bilberry and Blackcurrant, high in potent
antioxidants may help protect the lens and
retina from damage and reduce the risk
of cataracts. They also may help improve
blood supply to the eye, strengthen the small
capillaries of the eye and may help improve
night vision, may alleviate many eye ailments
including eye fatigue that may be caused by
reading, driving and computers.
eyebright may help normalise eye pressure
and reduce eye allergies.
taurine is an amino acid that is essential
for correct eye function. it may also have a
detoxifying affect on the eye.
Vitamin B2 may help alleviate eye fatigue,
bloodshot eyes and maintain good vision.
Yumberry is the latest in eye protection.
it provides many nutrients, is rich in
oligomeric proanthocyanidins (oPc’s) that
are potent antioxidants that may protect
eyesight.
These nutrients taken in a therapeutic
amount should provide comprehensive eye
protection, may slow and possibly even help
reverse eye damage that could lead to loss
of vision. all these nutrients are available
in an economical one a day easy to swallow
capsule.
