| Aequus Healthy Eyes Liquid is a
complete eye health formula containing key ingredients, Lutein and
Zeaxathin, to support healthy vision. Found in spinach and kale, Lutein
is an antioxidant that aids in blue light absorption, which is the light
ray essential to central vision. Lutein and Zeaxathin are currently
present in a small area of the retina. The consumption of Lutein and
Zeaxathin in supplement form will aid in your biological development of
this small area in the retina. Health care professionals also believe
that Lutein and Zeaxathin will protect your eyes from damage by free
radicals and exposure to direct sunlight. Aequus Health Products uses
the most premium quality materials in their products to give the
consumer a 100% of the essential vitamins and minerals that your body
needs. With Aequus Healthy Eyes Liquid with Lutein & Zeaxathin, getting

What is Lutein?
Lutein and zeaxanthin work in the eye as antioxidants. Cataracts
are caused by free radical damage of the lens of the eye and
therefore lutein and zeaxanthin can treat cataracts. Studies
show that they also protect the eye from damage and can reduce
the incidence of eye disease such as macular degeneration.
WHY SHOULD I TAKE EYE CARE SUPPLEMENTS?
The eye is a very important sensory organ, which is shown by the
fact that a large area of our brain is committed to taking in
and understanding visual information. Up to 70% of all of the
sensory receptors in the body are in the eyes. Problems with the
eyes become more common as we age. There are two main causes of
degenerative eye conditions: Free radical damage and decreased
blood flow to the eye.
Free radicals are unstable molecules that in their bid to become
more stable must bump into healthy cells and cause damage. This
can cause cell death, alterations in genetic material and
autoimmune reactions to damaged cells. Food, water and
ultraviolet radiation from the sun are the major contributors of
free radicals that build up in the eye.
The eyes reflect the overall health of the body. The vessels on
the back of the eyeball are very small and fragile. Changes in
them are often the first sign of cardiovascular diseases such as
hypertension and atherosclerosis. These conditions lead to
decreased blood flow to the retina. Lack of oxygen and an
accumulation of waste products eventually compromises vision.
Poor diet, environmental toxins, medications and stress all
decrease the body’s ability to neutralize free radicals and
maintain healthy vessels. This can result in eye degeneration,
occurring in cataracts, macular degeneration, and glaucoma.
WHO NEEDS TO TAKE EYE CARE SUPPLEMENTS?
What would we do without our vision? Just about everyone should
be concerned about eye health. Because damage from UV light from
the sun is a major cause of vision loss, most everyone should
use antioxidant supplements specific for the eyes. The vision
loss we experience as we age is only a matter of degree; if we
live long enough, we all experience it. |
