If you have macular degeneration and are seeking an eye vitamin that better meets your eye health needs, read more...
AREDS 2 is the most-quoted study for nutritional support of macular degeneration.
The study, conducted by the National Eye Institute, identified 6 vitamins that were critical to support slowing the progression of macular degeneration. Those vitamins are Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Zinc, Copper.
But did you know...
-
Vitamin A and beta-carotene were found to REDUCE the effectiveness of lutein and zeaxanthin AND increase the risk of lung cancer?
-
There was no significant different found when comparing 80 mg versus 25 mg of zinc daily, yet one company insists you need to take the highest dose (not us).
-
The copper is put in to protect against the effects of high zinc, yet some companies keep the copper at 2 mg even when they reduce the zinc (not us).

Vitamin E is supplied as either a synthetically created molecule or a natural molecule, usually from plant oil. The natural molecule is designated with only one letter (D) rather than two letters (DL) in the Supplement Facts section, and is 50% more bioavailable to your body. In fact, the government now requires that the old rules allowing companies to list 400 IU of Vitamin E must now come clean and list 180 mg of Vitamin E if they use synthetic or 268 mg if they use natural sources.
