VisionCare with Lutein

VisionCare with Lutein Benefits

• Scientifically validated to supports healthy vision
• Clinicians VisionCare with Lutein helps protect against free radical damage with two carotenoid antioxidants commonly found in the macula, lutein and zeaxanthin from the marigold flower.
• Daily life continuously exposes the eyes to damaging blue light; lutein and zeaxanthin help protect the eyes by absorbing damaging blue light and protecting against free radical damage
• Lutein and Zeaxanthin have also shown to support optimal macular pigment density to support eye health
• Clinicians VisionCare with Lutein also contains a synergistic combination of antioxidant vitamins and trace minerals (copper, Selenium, Zinc, vitamin C and E), commonly deficient in our diet but are so important for healthy vision and eye health as we age.
• The addition of vitamins E and C assist in supporting the body's antioxidant defenses
• Individuals with lighter coloured eyes may be at a higher risk of poor eye health
• Having high cholesterol levels or a high dietary intake of saturated fat and smoking have been associated with poor eye health

Heredity and aging appear to represent the primary risk factors in eye health; however, long term exposure to blue light and ultraviolet light may also contribute. Diet alone cannot provide the nutrients at levels to support optimum eye health, however a diet rich in coloured fruit and vegetables high in antioxidants does help.  A general multivitamin supports general health but does not provide the optimal levels of antioxidants and zinc.

In the eye, the macula is the central portion of the retina that is responsible for transforming light entering the eye into electrical neural impulses. The macula mediates central vision as well as the ability to see colour and fine detail.  Over time, wear and tear on the macula can result in improper processing of images.

Consider supplementing Clinicians VisionCare with Lutein with Clinicians Krill Oil 500 or Omega-3 Fish Oil to support cell membrane health and help protect from free radical damage.  Higher level of supplementation may be required for older people who may have reduced digestive function.

Other things you can do:

• Stop smoking
• Research has linked obesity with poor eye health
• Have routine eye exams especially if you have a history of eye problems
