WESTERN NEWS Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi Tuesday [Edition June 4 datE] 2019 193 SENIOR LIVING Research supports eye health Are you Magnesium deficient? 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 help 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.

Minerals are the building blocks of good health. Some minerals are only needed in trace amounts where others like magnesium are need in much larger amounts and on a regular basis to prevent deficiency and maintain optimum health. A large number of us do not obtain sufficient magnesium from our diet and may notice some of the common signs of deficiency. Some of the more common symptoms that may be caused by insufficient magnesium are: leg and muscle cramps, twitches, muscle pain, muscle fatigue and weakness, tremors of hands, blurred vision, restlessness, poor sleep, raised and/or unstable blood pressure, poor circulation, irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath, swallowing problems, dizziness, headaches, anxiety, agitation, irritability, seizures, poor concentration and many more. Although many young people now show signs of magnesium deficiency symptoms generally worsen as we age due to our digestive system being less efficient. Taking a magnesium supplement of sufficient strength may be a sensible option to top up our vital magnesium levels. Not all magnesium supplements however are well absorbed by everyone. Luckily GO- HEALTHY’S marine sourced magnesium offers excellent absorption due to its natural co-factors that include many trace nutrients that are low in the diet but essential for good health.
