The best vision supplements contain a variety of different nutrients. Your eyes must be protected against free radicals, glycation and inflammation, if they are to be resistant to age-related diseases. A healthy diet, good fluid intake and regular physical activity help protect against those things. They just aren’t enough. In order to do everything that you can to prevent disease or address hereditary weaknesses, you need a good multi-nutritional formula. Trying to plan a daily diet that includes all of the nutrients known to be beneficial for the prevention and reversal of eye disease would be hard for a nutritionist. The average person simply does not have the patience or the knowledge to do it. While all nutrients, even the basics like vitamin C and D, are important to every part of the body, including the eyes, there are certain nutrients and some plant extracts that are particularly important for continued good vision. Those nutrients include: Lutein and zeaxanthin; the best dietary source is kale. Research shows that supplementation reduces the risk of age-related macular degeneration and slows the progression of the disease by 20-50%. Bilberry extract; a wild berry that is not typically cultivated for mass production. Research indicates that vision supplements containing the extract improve the circulation of fluids within the eyes, which may be helpful in glaucoma and other disease. Molybdenum; a trace element found in all of the body’s tissues. Studies indicate that supplementation protects against the formation of cataracts and even reduces them, in some cases. Beta-carotene; the best dietary source is carrots. It is converted within the body into vitamin A, which protects against night blindness and blindness, in general. L-carnosine; protects against glycation, beneficial in diabetes-related eye damage and as an aid in the prevention of cataracts. Curcumin; an antioxidant and natural anti-inflammatory found in a spice plant called turmeric. You will find that most vision supplements on the market contain lutein and zeaxanthin. A few contain bilberry extract and beta-carotene, too. But, l-carnosine and curcumin are harder to find. Some nutrients are more “delicate” than others. If they are exposed to gastric acid in the stomach, they are changed into a form that cannot be absorbed into the bloodstream. So, in order for a supplement manufacturer to include them, they must be protected by an enteric coating. Otherwise, including them is a waste of time and money. Most vision supplements do not contain l-carnosine or curcumin, because of the need for an enteric coating. When people are unhappy with the results of supplementation, it is usually because the supplement is not well-designed. It can be hard for the consumer to tell what’s a good product and what’s not. Price is one clue. A cheap supplement will not contain the best ingredients. Most of the multi-vitamins that you see on the market contain synthetic vitamins, derived from petroleum products. Buying cheap vision supplements is a waste of money. You get what you pay for.
