| Eye Combo
SKU: 5 In our Eye Combo, we have carefully mixed Bilberry (400 mg) with Ginkgo biloba (100 mg), Grape seed (100 mg), Tomato (100 mg) and Lutein (5 mg) to create the best combination for your eyes. It is important to provide the eye with these natural ingredients in order to maintain a healthy eye function. The main ingredient in our Eye Combo is Bilberry. Bilberry is a tiny and fantastic berry. The herb bilberry (scientific name Vaccinium myrtillus) is a European relative of the American blueberry and is loaded with antioxidants that keep capillary walls strong and flexible. Bilberry protects the eye and improves vision. The herb contains Vitamins A and C, which gives antioxidant protection which can help prevent free radical damage to the eyes. Vitamin A is required for sharp vision, while Vitamin C helps form collagen and is needed for growth and repair of tissue cells and blood vessels. Bilberry has long been a remedy for poor vision and "night blindness." Clinical tests confirm that given orally it improves visual accuracy in healthy people, and can help those with eye diseases such as, retinitis, glaucoma, and myopia Bilberry works by improving the microcirculation and regeneration of retinal purple, a substance required for good eyesight. Bilberry is very helpful for our vision because the active ingredient anthocyanosides strengthens connective tissue, and prevents damage from free radicals. The anthocyanosides in bilberry also improves the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the eye. Ginkgo is one of the oldest living tree species and its leaves are among the most widely studied botanicals in use today. Ginkgo leaves contains two types of chemicals (flavonoids and terpenoids) believed to have potent antioxidant properties. Antioxidants are substances that fight free radicals. Free radicals are believed to contribute to a number of health problems including heart disease and cancer as well as Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. Antioxidants such as those found in ginkgo can neutralize free radicals and can prevent some of the damage they cause. The flavonoids found in Ginkgo are useful against some retinal problems (problems to the back part of the eye). Retinal damage has various potential causes, including diabetes and macular degeneration. Macular degeneration (often called age-related macular degeneration or ARMD) is a progressive, degenerative eye disease that normally affects older adults and is the number one cause of blindness in the United States. Studies suggest that gingko may help preserve vision in those with ARMD. The antioxidant in Ginkgo also protects cell membranes and venous integrity, improving their flexibility as well as resistance to free-radical damage. Ginkgo also benefits the eyes by allowing more blood and oxygen to be delivered to the head. Grape seed extract is an extract from grape seeds. The seeds are from red grapes which have a high content of compounds known as oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs). The OPCs are chemically known as flavonoids or polyphenols. Grape seed has a wide range of therapeutic uses, from preventing cancer and cardiovascular disease to alleviating symptoms of allergies, ulcers, and cataracts. The antioxidant properties of grape seed extract helps to slow down the aging process. Procyanidins, a group of compounds found in the extract increase the effectiveness of other antioxidants, especially vitamin C and vitamin E, by helping them regenerate after neutralizing free radicals in the blood and tissue. Since Grape seed extract have an impact on even the tiniest blood vessels, it benefits circulation in the eye. It is very useful in the combat against macular degeneration and cataracts, two of the most common causes of blindness in older people. Grape Seed extract is also helpful for persons who spend a lot of time in front a computer because it can reduce eyestrain connected to computer monitor work and improve contrast vision. Lycopene is the red pigment of tomatoes and it is also the most important nutrient of the tomato. Lycopene keeps the eyes healthy by protecting them from damages by harmful free-radicals. Lutein helps protect from oxidative stress and high-energy light. Various research studies have shown that a direct relationship exists between lutein intake and pigmentation in the eye. Several studies also show that an increase in macula pigmentation decreases the risk for eye diseases such as Age-related macular degeneration. Each bottle consists of 60 vegetarian capsules.
