Eyes

This Superpotency antioxidant provides the natural yellow antioxidants important for eyes, Lutein and Zeaxanthin. The eye's 'macula' is often called the 'yellow spot' because it collects Lutein and Zeaxanthin, believed to protect the retina from free radical damage. Vitamins A, C and E, Zinc and Selenium also help quench light-induced free radicals in the eyes.

One capsule typically provides: 30mg Lutein Complex (5%), 30mg Zeaxanthin Complex (5%), 60mg Vitamin C, 18mg Bilberry standardised extract, 5mg Vitamin E, 2mg Vitamin B2, 3mg Zinc, 250g Vitamin A, 75g Selenium, Tomato powder. -- No added: salt, artificial preservatives, colours or flavourings.

Suggested intake: Take 1-2 capsule a day, with meals.

All of the B vitamins are water soluble and so cannot be stored in the body. They are easily lost by cooking, storage and the effects of sunlight. Each vitamin is chemically different from the others and all have separate functions in the body. The overall action of the complex is to help maintain health particularly of the nervous system. B vitamins are vital for carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism and the conversion of food to energy. They help maintain clear eyes, and healthy looking skin and healthy hair. This probably is the reason so many women take a B Complex supplement as part of a nutritional daily beauty care programme. Being water soluble the nutrients are excreted in the urine if too much is taken. A well balanced, good quality formulation is all that's required for the necessary part it can play as a food supplement.
