Description
- Eye Nutrients contains 16 nutrients including vitamins,
minerals and herbs that have been found to support optimal
eye health and functions.*
Eye Structure and Function Support:
- Quercetin and Rutin help support capillary integrity and work
with Vitamin C to decrease bruising of the small capillaries
in the eye.* Rutin has also been associated with maintaining
healthy ocular pressure within the eye.* Quercetin helps support
histamine levels within normal ranges to help maintain
eye health.* - Bilberry helps with the formation and maintenance of
connective tissues within the eye, has beneficial effects on
microcirculation, assists in strengthening capillaries in the
eye and protects the macula. - Eyebright is an herb that improves microcirculation to the
retina and helps maintain eye moisture and pressure.* - L-Taurine is essential for maintaining the structural integrity
of the retina.* If Taurine is depleted, rapid photoreceptor
degeneration can result.* - Lutein and Zeaxanthin are antioxidants that support ocular
health by inhibiting free radical reactions in the eye and by
supporting the thickness of macular pigment.* Lutein is found
in high concentrations in the retina and macula of the eye.
Lutein also helps protect the lens of the eye from the damaging
effects of UV sunlight.* - Vitamin B12 helps nerve function by supporting the myelin
sheath, which insulates nerves such as the optic nerve.*
Antioxidant Support: - Alpha Lipoic Acid is both fat and water soluble and can
extend the biochemical life of L-Glutathione, and antioxidant
Vitamins C & E. - Beta carotene is a powerful antioxidant that is converted in
the body to Vitamin A, which is essential to the protection and
function of the retina of the eye.* - Lycopene is a powerful phytonutrient to to help maintain
optimal eye health.* - L-Glutathione is the key supporter in the lens. Its major function
is to protect the lens from ultraviolet radiation which over
time can cause clouding.* The production of Glutathione in
the lens declines with age. - Vitamins C & E are antioxidants that support circulation and
the structures of the eye.* - Selenium, Zinc & Riboflavin are nutrients necessary for
supporting antioxidants such as glutathione and super oxide
dismutase.
