6 types of Carotenoids!

Super Lutein contains 6 types of Carotenoids


Carotenoids

  • Lutein
  • Zeaxanthin
  • Crocetin
  • Lycopene
  • Alpha-coretene

Spinach contains high amounts of the antioxidants lutein and zeaxanthin which are nutrients that are found in high amounts in your eyes, in fact, in higher amounts than all others. It is believed that these two nutrients may be important for protecting your eyes against some of the bad effects that can be caused by oxygen. That’s why they are called antioxidants. In fact, many doctors are beginning to tell their patients to eat more spinach and other green leafy vegetables and/or to take supplements rich in antioxidants to help with all kinds of problems. Lutein is a powerful anti-oxidant and can prevent the harmful fats in the retina from over-oxidation, as well as absorb blue rays, preventing the retina from damages.

Marigold
is a herbal plant that has anti-inflammatory and skin-beautifying effects, and has been highly regarded since ancient times . In recent years, scientists have disclosed that it contains a very important nutrient -- lutein, which makes its usage even broader.

Tha main composition of Super Lutein is lutein. It is extracted from African marigold grown in Thailand and India using pesticide-free cultivation methods.

Crocetin is the nutrient extracted from the fruit of Cape Jasmine.

Zeaxanthin has similar composition to that of Lutein. It is stored in large quantities in our eye's yellow spot area.

Lycopene is the red colour pigments in tomatoes with powerful anti-oxidant effect.

Alpha-corotene and beta-corotene are the vitamin A precursor that transform vitamin A in the body.

Today, we do not eat enough good organic vegetables and fruits!

Glaucoma, the second leading cause of blindness!

Glaucoma

Glaucoma
, the second leading cause of blindness, is characterized by an increase in fluid pressure within the eyeball and a hardening of the surface of the eye. This increased pressure causes abnormal changes in the Optic Nerve and defects in the field of vision.

Glaucoma at a Glance:

  • Affects more than 3 million people living in the United States.

  • Is the leading cause of blindness in African Americans, who should begin glaucoma tests as early as age 35.

  • Is caused by increased pressure in the eye due to a buildup of excess fluid.

  • Results in a loss of peripheral or side vision, which affects your ability to move about safely.

  • May also affect reading, as loss of visual field may result in being able to read only one word at a time.

  • Can cause irreversible damage to the optic nerve if left undetected and untreated.

  • Is particularly dangerous to your vision because there are usually no noticeable symptoms at first.

Possible Signs of Glaucoma:

There are various types of glaucoma that can occur and progress without obvious symptoms or signs. Open-angle glaucoma is the most common, and symptoms are slow to develop. As this types of glaucoma progresses, you may notice that your side, or peripheral, vision is failing, causing you to miss objects out of the side and corner of your eye.

If you are suddenly experiencing the following symptoms, you may have angle-closure glaucoma and should seek immediate treatment:

  • Blurred vision
  • Nausea
  • Headaches
  • Halos around bright lights

Floaters in the Eyes

Some optometrists said that nothing can be done about floaters in the eyes. The fact is, there may be treatment and prevention through proper diet, lifestyle and supplements.

What are Floaters:

Floaters are small dark specks that appear before your eyes, floating through your field of vision. They are clumps of protein. They may look like bits, dots, squiggles, strands, spiders or any other shapes. Though annoying, floaters are harmless, and there are ways to prevent them through proper diet.

Warning: If you suddenly become aware of new spots in your vision, see your eye doctor right away to rule out serious problems.

What are the Causes:

Most floaters are the result of bits of cells that remain in the vitreous humor after birth and float around as the jelly-like substance (vitreous) inside your eyes become more liquid over time. Most people over the age of 40 experience this phenomenon to some extent. Over 50% of people over 70 years of age report seeing floaters. Annual dilated examination is strongly recommended . A sudden increase of floaters can be an indication of a vitreous or retinal detachment. People who have high nearsightedness and/or are diabetic in nature belongs to the high risk group in getting floaters and retinal detachment.A retinal detachment can lead to permanent vision loss.

Important nutrients for prevention and healing:

Bilberry improves circulation in the blood vessels of the eye, helps maintain the integrity of capillaries, stabilizes collagen, and stimulates the production of rhodopsin essential for night vision.

Lutein and zeaxanthin filter light, and serve as potent free radical scavengers for the retina.

Vitamin C helps make collagen which strengthens the capillaries that nourish the retina, protects against UV light and is a powerful antioxidant. The eye contains the second highest concentration of vitamin C in the body next to the adrenal glands.


RISK FACTORS FOR EYE FLOATERS:

  • Age over 40.
  • Nearsightedness.
  • Eye trauma.
  • Complications from cataract surgery.
  • Diabetic retinopathy.
  • Inflammation of the eye.

Almost all the antioxidants likely have a positive influence on eye health. Of particular importance are vitamins C, E, selenium, and the carotenoids found in fruits and vegetables. Two particular carotenoids, called LUTEIN and ZEAXANTHIN, play an important role in protecting eye tissue in the macula from damage by free radicals, and perhaps partially help prevent myopia or reduce myopia severity progression. Corn, eggs, green leafy vegetables, peppers, red grapes and pumpkins are some of the foods rich in lutein and zeazanthin. You can also find carotenoids and flavonoids in many herbs, including milk thistle and bilberry. Interestingly, bilberry contains anthocyanosides that could be beneficial in myopia.
