genunine doctor







Dear Friend,


Every time I turn around it seems I’m always looking for my glasses. Glasses for the computer… glasses for the menu… glasses for my cell phone… glasses for writing a prescription. Yes! I certainly know how you must feel. It drives me insane running around wondering where I left them.
And just because I’m a doctor doesn’t mean I don’t have some of the same health issues you. When it comes to poor vision I’m leading the pack! Since the age of 45 my eyesight has been doing nothing but getting worse. But honestly, I didn’t realize how bad poor vision can get until one of my patients stopped in for a visit.
You have to listen to this story…It was just a week ago one of my patients, Frank, came to me terribly depressed. Frank a guy who’s usually happy and go-lucky every time I see him. But that day it was different. So I knew it had to be something serious. I’m thinking maybe it was a family tragedy or he lost everything he had in the stock market. No it wasn’t that bad… but to Frank it wasn’t good! He just had his drivers license revoked.I really never gave it much thought how much of an impact this could have on someone’s life before but after listening to him… it hit home. So much of our lives are dependent upon driving. Grocery shopping… going out to dinner… getting to the drugstore… and even going to the doctor.So why did the license bureau take away Frank’s privilege to drive? It was because he failed his eyesight examination! And here’s the bad news… Frank was even wearing his eyeglasses during the test!It seems Frank hasn’t visited his ophthalmologist in over two years. And within that period of time his eyesight declined so severely that it’s no wonder they refused his license renewal. So why do I tell you this story? Because I don’t want it to happen to you!

FOR GOOD EYE SIGHT YOUR FOOD MUST FILLED BELOW GIVEN THINGS:

These Four “Scientifically-Proven” Vision-Saving IngredientsWon’t Come From Your Diet… Regardless How Much You Eat!

Vision-Saving Nutrient #1

Bilberry — This natural herb extract was effectively used by W.W. II pilots to help improve their night missions. Fast forward 50 years and science has also discovered that bilberry triggers the production of rhodopsin. This photo-sensitive protein helps the retina react to light changes and can assist you with driving at night.
Administration of bilberry extract resulted in improved nighttime visual acuity, faster adjustment to darkness, and faster restoration of visual acuity after exposure to glare. Bilberry’s beneficial effect includes the ability to improve oxygen and blood delivery to the eye and to scavenge free radicals that can disrupt collagen structures and contribute to conditions such as macular degeneration.

Vision-Saving Nutrient #2

Lutein — is a natural “super antioxidant” found in marigolds and is called a carotenoid. This potent nutrient helps protect your lens and macula from free radical damage. It’s these free radicals that attack your blood vessels, the lens, and the nerve cells of your eyes. They come from the sun’s rays, smoke, air pollution; even “good old” oxygen takes part in the assault.
Need proof? Take a bite of an apple and leave it on a plate for a few hours then come back. That “not so pretty” apple is caused by the same oxidation effect. Free radicals also go after other parts of your body too, but your eyes, naturally, are the most vulnerable.

Vision-Saving Nutrient #3

Zeaxanthin — another powerful carotenoid much like lutein also contributes to the antioxidant benefits of your eye. Your eye contains a high concentration of zeaxanthin and can often be detected by an eye examination as a yellow spot called macular pigment.
A study done by the Department of Psychology, University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia, confirms that lutein (L) and zeaxanthin (Z) may help improve vision throughout life through direct effects on the optics of the eye. These carotenoids may also help fight age-related visual loss by reducing the cumulative effects of oxidative damage to the retina and lens. (2)

Vision-Saving Nutrient #4

Lycopene — is a high-powered antioxidant that comes from tomatoes. Along with lutien and zeaxanthin this natural supplement can also protect your cells and tissues from free radical damage. Scientific evidence has demonstrated the protective effects of dietary tomatoes on the oxidative stress in the retinal pigment epithelium.
Vita-Vision includes 30 mg of lycopene to help deliver a big boost in antioxidant power. That’s at least four times more lycopene than most other leading vision products offer.
