Eye Vitamins, are they for real?
Why would someone wonder about eye vitamins, we take vitamins and supplements for other things? We take protein to build muscles and antioxidants for infection and to build the immune system and calcium for the bones so why not vitamins for the eyes. In fact we neglect our eyes until something goes wrong with them. We can’t see without our reading glasses or need greater graduation in our every day glasses.
Vitamins that help your eyes
The eyes are like any part of the body, they need nutrients and vitamins too so they will work properly and for a long time. For example vitamins for eyes should include Vitamin C and E reduces the risk of cataracts. Vitamin A and Beta-carotene are great for night vision and pupil dilation, they promote wound healing and also strengthen the immune system.
The body deteriorates as the years go by, we don’t have the same amount of energy and our body does not produce or metabolize the same amount of vitamins and nutrients. Our body needs to ingest twice the amount of vitamin C today to be able to use the same amount it did twenty years ago. The eyes are delicate pieces of equipment, equipment that can’t be replaced when damaged. So it is important that we make efforts to preserve them intact as long as we can.
How to take eye supplements
When you take general supplements and vitamins that contain iron and calcium and supposedly all the vitamins and minerals your body needs the recommended daily dosage the bottle mentions is supposed to include your eyes but it really doesn’t. Maybe a little something of Vitamin C or a small amount of amino acids get there but definitely not the dose they need to stay healthy.
It is important that you take a separate capsule or pill containing the eye vitamins some fifteen minutes after you take your general supplement. By doing so your other pill will be in the process of reaching all other organs and you will be able to use the second pill for what it is designed your eyes nutrition.
