Nutritional support for the care and maintenance of your eyes
Therapeutic Indications:
Eyevit Plus has been specifically formulated to ensure the intake of the most beneficial nutrients for maintaining good vision and caring for the eyes.
The eyes are a vital sense organ, responsible for vision. Good vision is an important part of well-being and a significant factor in maintaining quality of life as we age. Adequate nutrition is essential to help keep eyes healthy and functioning at their best.
Vitamin A and beta-carotene play an important role in maintaining good vision. They help protect the eyes against infections and are effective in treating dry eyes. For example, vitamin A deficiency is responsible for numerous cases of night blindness.
Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect the eyes against damage caused by metabolic by-products, free radicals, and against signs of ageing around the eyes. Studies suggest that vitamin E helps prevent cataracts and possibly macular degeneration (AMD).
Zinc helps the body absorb vitamin A and also assists antioxidant enzymes in reducing the number of free radicals that can cause damage to the eyes. Zinc has also been shown to protect against macular degeneration and prevent night blindness.
Bioflavonoids are a large family of substances found in most foods that are good sources of vitamin C. Their good antioxidant properties help protect blood vessels, including the delicate capillaries of the retina, while improving blood circulation, thus helping to reduce the appearance of dark circles.
Lutein and zeaxanthin, compounds known as 'xanthophylls', are yellow pigments that occur naturally in many plants and vegetables. They contribute important antioxidant functions to the body and help block blue light from reaching the underlying structures of the retina, thereby reducing the risk of light-induced oxidative damage.
Several studies suggest that fatty acids, such as Omega 3, can help protect the eyes from macular degeneration and dry eye syndrome. Essential fatty acids can also help in the drainage of intraocular fluid from the eye, reducing the risk of high eye pressures and glaucoma.
A diet deficient in vitamin D increases the risk of blindness and ocular degeneration with age.
Grape seeds are a source of two powerful antioxidants, proanthocyanidins and oligomeric proanthocyanidins. Studies suggest that Grape seed extract can help eye health, helping to reduce the risk of cataract development.
Bilberry is known for its beneficial properties for our eye health.
The anthocyanins naturally found in bilberry are believed to be the main reason why it is considered effective in providing nutritional support to the eyes, protecting against eye fatigue and helping to boost ocular circulation. Anthocyanins help build strong healthy capillaries that transport nutrients to the muscles and nerves of the eyes.
