Premium Peepers

The eyes are often prized for their beauty, however these complex organs are vulnerable to damage and deterioration, and destructive changes may be quietly progressing before the appearance of symptoms prompts investigation.  Preserving eye health is all about preventative care, with sensible lifestyle and nutritional choices integral to the maintenance of healthy eyes and vision. 

Major risk factors for eye damage include smoking, high blood pressure, diabetes, atherosclerosis and excessive exposure to UV light.  Free radical damage and poor delivery of oxygen and nutrients to various areas of the eye are key underlying features.  Parts of the eye particularly sensitive to degenerative damage are the lens, the retina, blood vessels and the optic nerve.

Fortunately a number of natural supplements have been confirmed through both traditional use and modern research to benefit eye health.  The herb Bilberry helps protect delicate blood vessels and has been used to aid vision; Ginkgo supports micro-circulation in the eye; and Eyebright, true to it’s name, helps soothe and refresh tired, irritated eyes. 

Antioxidant nutrients help neutralise free radical activity that can lead to eye damage.  Certain antioxidants have a specific affinity for the eye such as lutein, zeaxanthin, beta carotene, selenium and zinc, and are found concentrated in optical areas.  These nutrients are often found to be deficient in modern diets and supplementation can be of value to ensure protective levels of these important vitamins and minerals are obtained.

Premium vision™ is a powerful combination of key antioxidants, herbal extracts, vitamins and minerals to help maintain healthy eyes and provide natural support against age-related eye problems, eyestrain and visual fatigue.
