The National Eye Institute Reports That "High-Doses" of Antioxidants Is The Only Promising Way To Treat AMD, or Age Related Macular Degeneration...

For those of us with the dry form, only nutritional supplementation is of any help.

The National Eye Institute (NEI) did a large study that showed very convincing evidence that certain antioxidants slow the progression of AMD or may even prevent it altogether.

NEI director Paul A. Sieving, M.D., Ph.D. reports, "At present, the only established way to decrease the risk of vision loss in people with large drusen (early AMD) is to take daily supplements of vitamins and minerals as used in the NEI-supported Age-Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS)."

Sieving continued. "This study found that high-dose antioxidant vitamins and minerals (vitamins C and E, beta-carotene, zinc, and copper), taken by mouth by people at risk of developing advanced AMD, reduced the risk of progression to advanced AMD by 25 percent and the risk of moderate vision loss by 19 percent."

Lutein
Shown to protect against free radicals
Macular degeneration
Cancer

Lutein (pronounced LOO-teen) is a carotenoid, meaning a natural colorant or pigment, found in dark green leafy vegetables such as spinach, plus various fruits and corn. Egg yolks are also sources of lutein.

Lutein provides nutritional support to our eyes and skin – the only organs of the body directly exposed to the outside environment. Lutein has been linked to promoting healthy eyes through reducing the risk of macular degeneration. Other studies suggest that a mixture of nutrients, including lutein, may provide supplemental antioxidant capacity to the skin, helping counteract free radical damage

Why is lutein important in our diet? Simply put, lutein is an antioxidant that appears to quench or reduce harmful free radicals in various parts of the body. Free radicals can play a role in a variety of chronic diseases.

Lutein also filters the high-energy, blue wavelengths of light from the visible-light spectrum by as much as 90%. Blue light, in both indoor lighting and sunlight, is believed to induce oxidative stress and possible free-radical damage in human organs exposed to light, such as the eyes and skin. Blue light is not the same as the commonly known ultraviolet A and ultraviolet B wavelengths of the invisible spectrum.

Lutein

May protect eyes against long-term computer use

By Stephen Daniells, 02-Mar-2009

Supplements of lutein, long-reported to have benefits for eye health, may also protect against the detrimental effects of long-term computer display light exposure, says a new study from China.

Improvements in the sensitivity to contrast on a computer screen were observed following 12 weeks of supplementation with lutein, according to findings of a study with 37 healthy subjects published in the British Journal of Nutrition.

“Visual function in healthy subjects who received the lutein supplement improved, especially in contrast sensitivity, suggesting that a higher intake of lutein may have beneficial effects on the visual performance,” wrote the researchers from Peking University.

Lutein, , has a ten-year history in the dietary supplement market as a nutrient to reduce the risk of age related macular degeneration (ADM)..

Study details

The Beijing-based researchers recruited 37 healthy subjects aged between 22 and 30 with long-term computer display light exposure. The participants were randomly assigned to one of three groups for 12 weeks: the control group (placebo – maltodextrin), or one of two lutein groups, (6 of 12 milligrams of lutein per day)

At the end of the test period, the researchers noted an increase in blood levels of lutein in both lutein groups, from 0.36 to 0.61 micromoles per litre, and from 0.33 to 0.73 micromoles per litre in the low- and high-dose groups, respectively.

While no differences were observed in terms of uncorrected visual acuity and best-spectacle corrected visual acuity, the researchers do report that there was a trend towards improved visual acuity in people in the high-dose lutein group.

Both lutein groups did experience improvements in measures of contrast sensitivity, said the researchers, with the improvements reaching statistical significance was in the high-dose group. Secrets of Edens Bright Eyes delivers a dosage of 40 mg with just two capsules!

The average American diet provides only 823 mcg of lutein. Research shows that 6-20 mg is optimal for eye health. Lutein is an antioxidant or carotenoid found in large concentrations in the eye.

Protection for the eyes

Lutein protects the eye by blocking harmful blue light rays. Studies show that those who have adequate levels of lutein in the body are more likely to have healthy eyes, and reduce the risk of suboptimal eye disease.

Luten is excellent when taken in conjunction with the any formula like Secrets of Eden's Bright Eyes that contains Bilberry and a range of other eye and vision support herbs.

Bilberry

Night Vision

Often associated with improvement of night vision bilberries are mentioned in a popular story of WW II RAF pilots consuming bilberry jam to sharpen vision for night missions. N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine has also been tested and found to improve night vision in test subjects sometimes in as short a time as one week.

Cataracts Stopped

Although the effect of bilberry on night vision is controversial, laboratory studies have provided preliminary evidence that bilberry consumption may inhibit or reverse eye disorders such as macular degeneration. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial on 50 patients suffering from senile cataract showed that a combination of bilberry extract and vitamin E administered for 4 months was able to stop lens opacity progress in 97% of the cataracts.

As a deep blue fruit, bilberries contain high levels of anthocyanins which have been linked experimentally to lowered risk for several diseases, such as those of the heart, eyes and even cancer.
