Support Your Child’s Eyesight Now to Help Prevent Eye Health Problems in Later Life
VisionMax Junior contains the powerful natural carotenoids Lutein & Zeaxanthin which are found in high concentrations in the eye, particularly the macula. The Macula is the most visually sensitive part of the eye. Natural levels of lutein & Zeaxanthin in the eye often decline as we age. Supplements provide an ideal way of helping maintain healthy levels of nutrients in the eyes.
Children today also spend a lot of time looking at screens, whether that be on a tablet, laptop or phone. It is well documented that excessive time spent looking at a screen can affect one’s eyesight. This generation may have the most eye related problems of any other generation so far and therefore taking care of your child’s eye health is imperative more now than ever.
Lutein is not the only powerhouse antioxidant in this unique formulation. There is a few, and Lycopene is one of them. Lycopene, like lutein is a carotenoid, and so possesses all the abilities that lutein does. It is also a phytonutrient – an antioxidant found in plants. Cleverly, plants use them as a defence against their own free radical environmental damage, and once we consume it, we give our bodies the ability to fight free radical cell damage also. This is the important factor as, as previously mentioned, oxidative stress (free radicals) cause common eye conditions, and Lycopene has been found to help protect the eyes from oxidative stress. Lycopene has been found to possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties which may be able to help slow down or even stop some reactions within the eye that can lead to macular degeneration.
JuniorEyebright (Euphrasia Officinalis) is an herb. Surprisingly, this herb contains an abundance of nutrients including vitamins B, C, E, and beta-carotene (which act as antioxidants within the body), antioxidants and flavonoids, iridoid glycosides (which provide anti-inflammatory properties), defensive compounds, tannins and volatile oils. Eyebright is renowned for its use in treating eye related problems, as well as slowing down progressive vision weakness due to age. The tannins have been found to help reduce inflammation and swelling in the eye as well as also create a protective coating on the surface of the eye.
Bilberry (also known as Vaccinium myrtillus L.) is considered amazingly beneficial to eye health. It contains naturally-producing chemicals known as anthocyanosides. Anthocyanosides (such as _x0003_those phytonutrients in Lycopene) are plant pigments that have powerful _x0003_antioxidant properties. These antioxidants are said to search the body for free _x0003_radicals, in order to help prevent or reverse damaged cells. Due to its _x0003_anthocyanosides, bilberry is commonly used to help improve night vision or vision _x0003_handicaps in low light, decreasing vascular permeability and capillary fragility.
Bilberry, is one of the richest natural sources of anthocyanins. Anthocyanins are _x0003_polyphenolic components that give bilberry its colour and rich antioxidant content. _x0003_These powerful anthocyanins are thought to be responsible for the many health _x0003_benefits of bilberry. Bilberry contains numerous phenolic compounds, including the _x0003_flavonols, quercetin and catechins, tannins, ellagitannins and phenolic acids; yet, the anthocyanins found in the bilberry are, undoubtedly, the biggest contribution to its phytonutrient density. As with all the ingredients within Eyebright Plus, Bilberry too has been found to also provide protective effects against and macular degeneration, glaucoma and cataracts.
